The one thing I do miss is the touch screen. Has there ever been any talk about BB's getting touch screens?

I tried searching for touch screen and got hundreds of hits, so if this is an old topic please forgive my newness.

Good god I hope not. I switched to BlackBerry because of its one handed use. Microsoft has smartphone edition, but its not optimized for one handed use. You cant select text and copy in that platform. You can tell that key cursor input for that OS was only an afterthought. BB on the other hand is very key intuitive. For me anyway, if they forced us to use touchscreens in some programs, there is no reason for me to stay with BB.
