Samsung announced that in 2008 their touch screen handsets have been selling in quite some millions around the globe (ten, actually). That's a nice percentage out of the total of 37 million touch phones sold globally...

        Symbian system is too slow. Windows Mobile seems to be a smoother (and faster) system to use. Touch screen does seems to be the way phones are going, just hope not too many symbians.

          That's good to know! Touch screen tech has come to stay and with such rates, hopefully all the companies will improve their products! Steve Jobs must be updated about that and run to get his iPhone better like a better camera or enable a FM radio or even insert the MMS messages system! Just to name a few..
          I myself had one LG VIEWTY which is a very good one but now my new little toy is a SAMSUNG OMNIA! Must confess it is a difficult phone but I had to consider that OMNIA is not an ordinary phone but a SMARTPHONE! And a full one!!!

            I had Samsung once and it sucked so bad it was so embarrassing...
            The reason Samsung is selling that many unit is because it is cheap brand...
            Not everybody can afford a Lexus... But many people can afford the Toyota Corolla...
            I never go back to Samsung again...

                touchscreen is "the new thing" on cellphones
                touchscreen exists for decades, like the lcd technology.
                u just got a bigger screen (big and dirty)
                touchscreen devices is handle as 2nd or 3rd device.

                  better iphone? in ten years you'll be able to compare the future iphone with the current iphone 3g and say that it has changed something that matters.
