Do Android/webOS devices support multi-touch Javascript events?

Please star this bug on the Android bug list:

Let's see if we can raise awareness of this issue.

The best master tracking for touch events (other than multi-touch! - answered above) appears to be:

Right now, Android 2.1 gets you pinch/zoom, but that's it. There's no fine-grained multi-touch tracking, like you get on iPhone.

UPDATE: MAY 2011 - Android Honeycomb 3.0 and 3.1 browsers now have proper multitouch

On Palm webOS, you can get multiple touch events. You can receive up to five touch points at one time.

If you're doing native development using the PDK, handling multiple touches is described at http://developer.palm.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=1980&Itemid=337. Each finger is tracked as a separate mouse in the SDL events.

For Javascript developers using the standard SDK, there events that are sent to indicate that two fingers are in use. "gesturestart" fires when the user puts 2 fingers on the screen, usually to pinch or rotate, "gesturechange" fires when 1 or both fingers move on the screen, and "gestureend" fires when the fingers are lifted from the screen. These aren't well documented on the Palm developer site, but they're used in the mojomatters sample code.

Edit: looking at your question again, there is no "touch" event support in the browser on WebOS for applications delivered through web sites.
