As you point out, however, when used with a stylus the LCD screen is reasonably accurate. Also, many point of sale terminals with resistive touch screens don't have this problem. Perhaps it can be resolved with new software.

What did this latest update do? When I first received the Edge last week I updated. Then I notice last weekend that a new update was available so I installed it. Never saw any release notes though.
I am glad you are keeping the device. I love mine and you will too. As for the LCD screen, you have to remember that it is a resistive screen. Trying using your finger nail. Once you get used to it, you will find that it is accurate and responsive.
