well I think with my usb port I could do it would be a bit of a pain though but still.

I can't imagine laptops going to touch screens, as this would just about kill the touch typing method for blind people. I would certainly hope that there would be a way to connect an external keyboard? A touch screen laptop, unless it works as the iPhone does, would be extremely difficult for us to use.

Hi Damien,

Well, unfortunately as I said in my prior post touchscreen devices are becoming more common. Not just on smart phones and tablet PCs but the next generation of Windows laptops and desktops will begin shipping with touchscreens as well.

The way Windows 8 is designed instead of a start menu we now have a start screen with icons tiled across the screen in rows and columns like a table. Perfect for a touchscreen, or mouse but a pain in the rear if you try to get to those icons using a keyboard or buttons on a smart phone. However, love it or hate it I think touchscreen technology is here to stay.

As for Apple's iPhone I personally don't think it is too bad. Yes, there is a learning curve involved, but like everything in life practice makes perfect. I understand your frustration, but I also sense perhaps you just gave up rather than sticking with it. A lot of us who have used iPhones just stuck with it until we figured it out. Rather than getting frustrated and throwing in the towel we practiced at it until we got good at using the phone.

Cheers!
