Personally, I think the limiting factor for previous touches was the difficulty in using the 5-way controller to navigate.

It is my belief that the touchscreen and the "open" GUI environment will cross a threshold making app development available to "lesser geeks" (of which there are many).

My eventual plan is to add one of those fancy new drag-n-drop GUI "programming" environments that are becoming popular. You can build useful GUI scripts/plug-ins as easy as playing with Legos, and they can do useful things too.
