Amen (no experience with the iOS one)
Some of us are touch challenged to boot.
My Glove size XL. I am also a klutz
I can't use most of the touch screen menus on my phone without a stylus
Using my TAB is only slightly better, Many, many false selections
AND I have friends with fingers even larger than mine that I feel sorry for trying to use these tiny on screen buttons.
I believe there is a clear division and distinction between the groups. The problem is the touch-GUI group refuses to acknowledge there are other needs out there. OSMFA (m=must)
