Touchscreen phones fail to push buttons

Apart from Apple's iPhone and LG's KC910 phone, touchscreen mobile phones are disappointing customers who have bought them, according to shopper feedback collected by Reevoo.com. The Guardian reports.

Among those receiving brickbats is the BlackBerry Storm, RIM's move into the pure touchscreen market, where Apple has already sold 17m iPhones.

Though the Storm wins a 7.3 rating out of 10, that leaves it far down the listings: most phones reviewed by Reevoo users get at least an 8.0 rating or higher.

The top-rated phone at present, the Nokia 5220 XpressMusic, uses a standard keypad and gets an 8.8 rating. The iPhone and LG's "Renoir" are the highest-ranking touchscreen phones, both receiving an overall score of 8.3.
