So this device hasn't been supported by uTouch, since it's a Wacom
2-touch only, and our target platform has been N-trig.

That being said, Henrik has been trying to improve the hardware coverage
we offer in uTouch, though I'm not sure what our policy should be with
regard to 2+ touches on devices that can't support them. (e.g., do we
drop them? do we perform the 2-touch version of a 3- or 4-touch gesture?)

Henrik can give an update on the Wacom support he's working on, and how
this might benefit your touch explorations with the tm2.

Right, I *think* that's expected, since you don't have a supported
device. But Chase and Henrik can correct me if that assumption is incorrect.

Don't know about that. Someone else will have to comment.
