How is the value in SystemInfo.deviceModel gathered?

Hello,

We're currently working on a multitouch game and would like to use an alternative control scheme on Android devices that have flaky multitouch, such as the Nexus One. In order to identify devices, we need to use SystemInfo.deviceModel, and in order to do that, I was hoping for a bit of insight into how this value is collected from the devices.

From testing and looking at the build properties for both the Nexus One and Xoom, it appears that the value reported by SystemInfo.deviceModel is "Build.MANUFACTURER Build.MODEL". Can someone confirm that this is correct?

For example, we noticed the following for the Nexus One

• Device: Nexus One

• SystemInfo.deviceModel: HTC Nexus One

• Build.MANUFACTURER: HTC

• Build.MODEL: Nexus One

It would be useful to know how this value is created so that we can reliably add devices to our "multitouch disabled" list without actually having the device in front of us - we would just need to look up the build properties for the device.

Thanks!
