It's silly when people speak about one being "better" than the other.
Although, I think touch-screens are overkill for most devices, and they promote lazy GUI programming. ie. no button shortcuts for the things you use most often.
THANK YOU! I agree. I regret that devices like the N800 (with a D-pad) weren't improved upon with better D-pads instead of dropping them altogether, as an example. We would have FAR better directional controls in addition to the touchscreen GUI's and MUCH better gaming.
