It measures the displacement of liquid crystal. This means that someone with a bigger finger or someone that uses a different surface area will have different displacement than someone using a stylus, or someone with smaller fingers. This definitely can't be as good as the one on the iPhone, which is a dream to use. It will be similar to other current generation windows mobile devices or worse. I also foresee problems with tracking once the lcd has been displaced, so things like dragging will be problematic. Its going to be a ... should use a stylus primarily device. Why don't they use the same technology that is in the iPhone? The touch screen tech they are using cannot compare.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">numetheus</dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 09 Feb 2008 19:14:28 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: RIM patents touchscreen LCD</title><link>http://blackberrycool.smokelabs.net/2008/02/rim-patents-touchscreen-lcd/#comment-13688132</link><description>&lt;p&gt;oh, clever.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">FuturDreamz</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 08 Feb 2008 09:24:22 -0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
