Of course, that just highlights the horses for courses aspect of the whole issue, because with a TV remote device you do not want to look at the device.
And I chose my touchscreen tablet because it is compatible with a real physical keyboard - I cannot use those onscreen keyboards. OTOH I chose my keyboard-compatible tablet because it has a (capacitive) touch screen that works well with fingers rather than a stylus.
Now there's a thought. How would a touchscreen + stylus compare precision-wise to a glidepad + pen? The trusty old Series 5 had a great little drawing app....
