I would say it's less hype and becoming more of a reality. Haptic
feedback, pressure sensitivity; and accuracy are all becoming
realities for touchscreen technology so its becoming much more a

I have owned an iPhone for almost a year now, and my issue with the
touchscreen interface is not that it is hard to hit the keys

a hardware keyboard your thumb(s) can be on the keys to hold and

I would love a touchscreen to be created with areas that could raise
on electrical impulse, so that buttons on the current interface would
have a tactile quality, and change positions as the interface changes

I know the touch screen very much. for we are manufacturer of the
touch panel for the Iphone manufacturer. we focus on the 4-wire

There are haptic touchscreens in development, such as the Samsung

keyboard. I find using a touchscreen for typing lacking.
Personal view - touchscreen devices are currently on the hype bit of
the Gartner curve, and as people realise that even though the devices
On the other hand, devices like BlackBerry offer a really worst
alternative. The trackball to navigate links and specially the QWERTY
keyboard on a 5 columns of buttons/keys cellphone are so hard to use
that using an onscreen keyboard turns to be a very good experience :)
