Hi Just read your post and it made me smile, I just had to register so I could comment. I've had load of touch screen phones and non of them capacitive like the iPhone. Let me tell you it all about the software not the screen type. The N900 is really going to be a mass market thing, its for people who what function or form. Yes we care about design, but to be honest if you want form or function, but an iPhone. Sorry I got into a bit of a rant for a second. Back to screens I'm currently using a SE P1i as a personal and a SE P990 for work. I loaded a blog and news app a couple months ago which had a touch interface. I looks like a iPhone port. What is intreasting about it is the way you stroking the screen works. The same as the iPhone without the multi touch. If your going to base your purchase on the screen technolgy alone you better buy an iPhone.
