This how-to guide worked for me. Worked wonders! If you are JUST looking for multi-touch browser, try Dolphin or xScope, just do a little searching for more info

I'll help you with the nandroid recovery when I get home from work ... if someone hasn't helped you by then. Have you combed thru Sholes.info?

His post refers to creating a nandroid backup (surf Sholes) of your entire DROID. With all due respect, I'm trying to figure out what a multi-touch browser has to do with any of that?

Sorry, confused too when I came back to this, thought I put it on the wrong thread. I saw that he mentions trying to get a multi-touch browser, thought maybe I'd make a recommendation that is easier than rooting/flashing if that is the only goal. Sorry to confuse folks.

also, does anyone have a WORKING link for the multitouch browser porter over from the milestone because every guide says link removed or has a link the alldroid and that doesnt exist anymore.

reboot your phone into recovery > backup/restore. NANDROID backup (simple) is a option in the "backup/restore" submenu. It is still there in the 99b.1 recovery that I did yesterday.
