External Multitouch Trackpad (Glass?)

[TexasPancake]

Love the new glass trackpads, and would love to have the multi-touch support for desktop use on my iMac too. Know of any quality solutions that compare to Apple's glass trackpads?

There is a used multitouch swipe/pinch (no 4-fingers, no glass) MBP top case and touchpad assembly here (http://www.powerbookmedic.com/Top-Case-Trackpad-Assembly-for-MacBook-Pro-p-16975.html) for $99. It could work. You'd need to hook a USB cable to the ribbon, and do it up nice with some handywork to make it look good, but I believe its technically feasible.
