Why I Hate Touch Screens and the LG Dare

Touch screen cell phones are in... the stylus is out. This is a convenient change that saves me money. I cannot tell you how many times I lost the stylus from my Palm Treo, but I can tell you that I've never lost my thumb.

It seems like every new phone is turning touch-screen.

So.. why do I hate touch screens?

I hadn't used the LG Dare yet.

I think that touch-screen phones are like girlfriends.. you have to be sensitive and patient with them to get the most out of them. The more time I spent with the LG Dare the more I became familiar with the finger movements used to navigate. Other than reviewing the phones, I had not spent enough time using touch screen phones to in the past to enjoy them. Just like my BlackBerry and most consumer electronics.. if you know how to use it you'll probably like it better. I think that's why my mom still hates the VCR.
