I mention this only because the N900 is resistive and I hear people asking for a Capacitive screen.

I made an interesting observation last night.

I bought my Girlfriend an ITouch for Christmas (i know, it's not yet Christmas), but I gave it to her last night.

To sum it up....she can't use it as she has fingernails and the screen doesn't recognize her "touches". Why does resistive get such a hard time when it can do everything the capacitive can do (plus more)? Is this an over looked issue with capacitive screens?

I should add that it didn't even cross my mind when i ordered this. She doesn't have freaky nails, but a nail is a nail...if it comes out past your finger, it's too long for the itouch.
