    A lot of people don't realize how brilliant of Apple it was to make iPhones operable by your fingers, but not a stylus.
    It might seem just a small technicality, but it brings interactivity to a deeper level of biofeedback.
    With physics added to interface animation to amplify the effect (deaccellerating tweens in scrolling elements) you don't feel you touch the glass with a stick anymore. You make things happen onscreen.
    There are a lot of gimmicks around, but upcoming proliferation of touchscreens marks a new era in human-machine interaction.
