My reading leads me to believe that capacitive touch screens are considerably less accurate than resistive ones. With a stylus and a properly calibrated screen, resistive touch screens can be accurate to a single pixel on the screen. Capacitive screens are OK for pushing "buttons", but they cannot be used for such things as "writing" on the screen.
