Is there a multitouch limit on Windows 8 tablets?

Question

I'm interested to know if there is any limitation about multitouch on Windows 8 tablets.

What I need to know is if it can handle more than 5 simultaneous touches at a time.

Answer 1

Take a look at http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-8/multitouch-hardware-reqs.

For example, touchscreens that support fewer than five simultaneous touch points don't work with certain features and apps that are part of Windows 8 and Windows 8.1.

Windows requires five touch points it self so certified hardware should be good to go, you'll have to look up the touch specifications of the hardware itself.
