I guess it's true nokia did leave some features in the dark in the past. It's a weird decision i don't understand. It's exactly the opposite of the flashy iphone promotion crusade, and maybe it's part of the reason nokia is not the maker of the phone everyone compares/benchmarks against.
Anyways, resistive multi-touch is not just some regular spec, which might as well not be there, such as fm radio. It's HUGE! It's something utterly new, which may have the opportunity to turn capacitive screens intro obsolete trash. Think about it, if you were a nokia big-wig, what would you have the developer drones do: facebook app or something innovative with the potential to make the device stand out even more?
Don't get me wrong, i do hope it has this easter egg inside and we get a nice impressive present somewhere down the road. It's just that i've seen so many pieces of crap ultra-hyped into shining, it's hard for me to believe they'd leave such a gem in the mud (damn, i'm poetical!)
