Abstract
Systems and methods for operating a handheld computing device having more than one input device. An input event may be received at one of the input devices. The location of the input event may be translated into a location with respect to a global virtual space. This translated location may in turn be passed to an application executing on the device. Additionally, systems and methods are provided for recognition of a gesture input spanning more than one independent input device.
