Isn't there a lock switch for the touch screen? like on the ipod touch?

Don't worry the screen is truly excellent!
Probably the best resistive screen to this date.
Very responsive, just a tiny more preasure then a capasative screen (makes the missclicking a lot less frequent)
Stuff like sketchpads now actually seems kind of useful paired with the stylus, if you got a wacom digital tablet pen you can do some amazing pic's!
Well here you have both hardware and software lock for the screen, just choose
Also watching movies and pictures it's waaay better on the N900 then for example the iphone in every possible way.
More natural colors, more accurate contrast, 2,5 times higher resolution.
Nokia always made great screens and the N900 isn't an exception
Hope this info helps you a bit.

N900 screen is fantastic, (same amount of pressure i use with the ipod touch.)
No ghosting in movies, as well as a great contrast band.
The only notable delay is in the vibrate feature, not the screen itself!
I'm not going back to captive i dont think, im too attached to resistive.

Just got my N900 the day before yesterday, and i'd have to say that the touchscreen is fantastic!

Screen works well but truth of the matter is the ipod touch's screen (and presumably the iphone) I found to be a million times more responsive. In the three months I had the ipod touch (before I sold it cause I could not bear to own an apple device anymore) I never made a single selection error but I do alot on the N900.
Using my nails makes the N900 screen far more responsive but it will never come close to what I experienced with the ipod touch. The so called benefits of resistive don't really matter to me. I couldn't use the device with gloves anyway and I am not doing any handwriting recognition. And I would rather not use a stylus and when I do it is to play solitaire and that is only cause constantly dragging the cards with my nails begins to feel like hard work after a while.
General population agrees with this which is why Maemo 6 will be capacitive along with the other popular touch devices (ipod, zune, hd2, etc).
