If you’ve used a Mac at all you know how handy multi-touch gestures can be in a pinch (har har).  However, as it turns out there are two ways you can enable multi-touch gestures on the iPad under iOS 4.3.1.  Using one you can pay for as detailed by TUAW here, and the other method allows you to enable it for free provided you’re willing to jailbreak your device as detailed here.

Some of you may not have a huge need to do this, but I went for the free option and haven’t regretted it in the least.  Chiefly the reason I wanted multi-touch enabled was so that I could four-finger swipe left and right between iBooks and Evernote so I could take notes about what I was reading quicker.  Granted I could’ve used the ‘Note’ functionality within iBooks but I tend to use Evernote for just about everything as I have such a deep love for the application.

What about you?  Any desire for gestures or does the iPad work just fine without it?
