Multitouch feature in Nexus One is little ambiguous, as both the hardware(HTC) and OS(Android) of phone fully support multitouch functionality, it’s also possible that multitouch feature may or mayn’t be available on handsets being sold in US, like Motorola released separate version of Motorola Driod for European countries and other countries, European version of Droid also don’t support multitouch functionality.
