There is Lenovo software on it that supports the multi-touch, so that is not an issue. I would more than likely at some point change the OS anyway......

How is the screen? Also glossy? Or only the case?

The screen is semi-matte. You get a little bit of reflection, but not nearly as much as with a traditional glossy screen.

A device like this you're going to want to put a screen protector on it anyway. I just put a Kai anti-glare protector, from ebay, on my A81 yesterday and it's a very nice matte.
