I used to work for a company that manufactured touch devices. One line of our devices did support hover (it's probably 5 years old now) but we disabled it in software because it was too confusing of an end-user experience. This was a camera based solution but I'm sure it's the same for capacitive screens. From my actual experience, I don't think 'normal' users would 'get' hover.
