Resistive touch is hard to do with your fingers, hence the inclusion of a stylus. This is from one of the reviews in the link:

The touchscreen isn't really for touching. It will work as a touchscreen, but it's not as silky smooth as say my touchscreen phone. However, the edifi comes with a stylus and that works well.

This tablet isn't worth $150. I certainly wouldn't recommend it. The Nexus 7 at $199 has specs and quality that blow this tablet out of the water.
