I tried this on my convertible tablet running Windows 7 and it didn't work at all. First, it was completely intrusive, and since my computer is a hybrid, it has a swivel top so it can be used as a normal laptop with a keyboard or spun around as a slate. I don't want my tablet programs to be intrusive to how I normally use my computer, but provide the benefits that multitouch enables. Second, it didn't seem to do anything, was very unstable, and I could barely get it to let me get to an actual page. Also, keyboard input messed it up. I know this is a product focused on slates, but don't they have specialized browsers already? It would be great if you guys went for a broader audience, and catered to all users that have multitouch support.

    I'm also using it on a hybrid netbook(Asus T91) and i think it works really well. When i have the screen swiveled around in tablet mode i think the on screen keyboard is awesome. Also the idea of making it a firefox plugin for cross platform support(i'm running it on Ubuntu 9.10) is really clever.
