I've gotten used to the whole idea of touchscreen havin a Nokia 5800 but sometimes I do get a longing for buttons . Nothing beats a good old touch n feel and press .

Well i have a nokia touchscreen at the moment but im getting rewlly bored with it i ahve it over a yeaar now ..would love an iphone but cant afford it... My mum got one of the nokia phones like the blackberry and considering getting one of them!!
I don't like touchscreen phones because I used to text without see the button but with touchscreen I have to see the buttons, and it's took time *even a bit* :)
I dont like touchscreens, had 1 before and my stubby fingers kept pressing the wrong keys, ended up throwing it against a wall I got that frustrated one day trying to text someone, I've gone back to buttons and as long as they are for sale I'll buy them
Well I got myself a HTC Desire Z the other day. It's a touch screen but a keypad slides out from underneath. I don't mind touching the screen to access stuff etc but not for typing. Do my head in

Excuse me for being a bit behind the times, does that mean touch screen you don't need to type any more. If so that is a bit sad as to me sounds like it's making for the future generation lazy minds. Like the cash registar in supermakets. If a mistake is made they can't add up or detract and then hit the panic button for someone to come help.

Morning
Yes touch screen phones are all the rage at the moment. I have one but it's so fiddly i would rather have buttons. You simply slide the digits on the screen with your finger. Having tiny fingers would help massively
There's no both option... grrr... must admit I was given a Crackberry by work with buttons so small might as well be a midget... but its still alive don't know how... as to touchscreen's I have one at work on the PC and for that its genius also I am getting a touchscreen phone soon as I want one for the motorbike and the buttons on most phones are too small for me to use them with gloves on... but there are days when I want a good old fashioned dial phone remember them!!! and yes they all do my head in... shame I work in IT...
