How can I get input data from the rear touch pad on the Vita?

Question

How can I get input data from the rear touch pad on the Vita using Playstation Suite?

I can use:

Sce.Pss.Core.Input.Touch.GetData(0)

to get data about touches on the screen, does anyone know how to get the touch data from the rear touch panel?

I tried:

Sce.Pss.Core.Input.Touch.GetData(1)

without any success, I get an index out of bounds exception.

Unfortunately the PS Suite SDK will not, at this time, offer support for the rear touch panel. The SDK is purposed to make games that function on all PS Certified devices, and while this includes the Vita, it also includes a variety of Android devices which lack such an input. They are definitely going for the lowest common denominator here.

Here is the official response.

Really makes a bit more sense why they renamed it PS Mobile. ;)
