They're a bit pricey too

The tocco lite is absolutely horrible, the animation is jaggy, the touching doesn't actually work. I'm getting my mum to return it so I can buy her a 3g 8gb instead.

Must be personal opinion or you're used to more responsive phones:P

I ordered the samsung s5600 last night anyway :)
£139 and I get the phone, £20 HMV voucher, £20 topup and a bluetooth headset :D

I've used a grand total of 4 touch phones, my iPhone 3GS, the Tocco Lite, a Blackberry Storm and some random nokia, only the storm and the 3GS have good performance, the animation is smooth and the interface is easy to use on both.

Those are both pretty high-end phones though so you'd expect it to be better, whilst the tocco lite isn't :P

Thanks!

The storm has good performance?! Every review I've read slates the phone for its slugglishness! I'll have to take your word for it though because I've never actually used one.

As far as resistive touchscreens go, the tocco lite is as responsive as any I've used and so far I haven't encountered any jerky animation, maybe the one you used had a different firmware version or something? Seems competent to me!

Good luck with your phone :)

You have obviously never used an iPhone 3G/S, my mom has the Tocco, and it doesn't compare to my iPhone 3G in any way...

An iPhone has a capacitive touch screen (as does the original tocco actually) so it's bound to be more responsive. Thats why I prefaced the sentence with "as far as resistive touchscreens go" :)

Oh, fair enough. :P
