[quote author=atrac link=topic=184.msg1537#msg1537 date=1274549458]I'm curious -- how are you all getting along with your touchscreen? Tapping is pretty good (although "e" and "w" on the keyboard in landscape mode requires more pressure), but scrolling is very difficult for me. For example when I tried to change the time zone, it kept selecting the first thing I put my finger on instead of sensing that I was starting to scroll. This pretty much happens every time I try to scroll. I'd say I'm averaging one in seven on getting it to work correctly.The calibration feature is great -- for taps. I realize this is a $100 device and it's a resistive touchscreen, but yikes!Anyone having similar results?[/quote]I believe the reason is that the screen is Resistive (A resistive touchscreen has two thin layers of conductive but transparent film above the screen, and measures the change in resistance between the two layers due to the pressure of touch) and not a Capacitive screen (A capacitive touchscreen measures the interaction between an electrical signal on a transparent grid above the screen and the user?s finger) Googled.
