NewsDell Unleashes Latitude XT's Multi-Touch Functionality with Firmware Update

The moment Dell Latitude XT owners had all been waiting for has finally arrived. Dell has released a firmware update for the tablet PC that unlocks its multi-touch capabilities.

The company began shipping the XT tablet sans any multi-touch in December, 2007 but with an assurance that the feature would be added at a later time. It is very strange how some websites are highlighting the fact that the update is free.
