Do you feel the same way too? I mean the only time i even use the stylus is when using the on screen keyboard, other wise it just works perfectly with fingers.

Yeah, I've been using my thumb for 90% of everything on my previous UIQ phones. W960 was probably the easiest as the screen is flush. Nowadays, G700/G900 just makes it even better.

I forgot when the last time I used stylus. Since P800 I used to draw characters with indexfinger nail, and most functions are working well (I mean, can be easily controlled with fingers).
Still there're annoying moments, some things are just wrongly designed like toggling BT/IRDA. I used to use finger anyway but sometimes I miss the exact checkboxes, changing wrong fields etc. Bearable, I'll live with it.

as i lost both stylus for my P1 ages ago ive been thumbing it ever since.
works well but there are a few things that are a little small so take a couple of attempts to press.
think the G900 has made the full transition to a thumb pressing device.
stylus redundant?

When I first tried to use my M600i with my thumb it was a bit difficult (I lost my stylus and had to do it this way). After recalibration the touchscreen using the setup-wizard it works perfectly now, after figuring out how to touch the screen during calibration (using only a small part of the fingertips) I now even hit small target at once (like a day in the calender chooser).

i think the jog dial is a totally stupid idea.
i have used various touch screen phones & never felt the need for/lack of a jog dial/thumb wheel.
