I think I would get tired of my phone if I had to buy a sausage every time I wanted to use it in the winter.

I think I prefer resistive.

awesome catch

The N900 is my first touch screen phone, and I've used a iPod touch before, and can honestly say those who say resistive is rubbish are talking rubbish!

Yeah, you need to press slightly harder, but it's nothing thats going to hinder any usage! Obviously I've never used other resistive screens, but the N900 one is superb in my opinion.. in fact I can actually type faster on the on-screen keyboard than the hardware one at the moment! The stylus comes in handy too.

I love resistive because you can use anything on the screen...

if only we could have multi-touch with resistive screens...

And you know what due NOKIA is finish what you think they take rsistive Displays everything is freezing when you have to take off the gloves :)
Had it the last couple of weeks in Germany too i loved to use my N900 with the gloves instead having frozen fingers :)
:D

I love how this topic continues to be resurrected on these forums over and over and over and over and over and over...

@bachagabriel, there are multitouch resistive screens. That is truely the win technology. There is another thread on that, if you're interested you can look for it.

I mostly did it for comic effect.


-i agree, multitouch resistive is the way to go.

erm capacative is nice, and overall my fav

but saying al lthis - the n900 has a gret screen with great detail and i love browsing on it- and using a stylus is a plus, which you cant do on the capacative

Re: capacitive vs resistive
 

You can, if your stylus is made of the right material, see here for instance.
