up, down, left, right and select with a touch screen are things I don't
understand.

I suspect you haven't tried the iPhone / iPod touch, right? Those
capacitive touch screens in connection with powerful graphics
processing make for really great browsing tools, much, much, much
faster and simpler than you can ever do it with hard keys.

The one thing where you need hard keys is where you want hard-coded
immediate action, being volume, play/pause, maybe skip, maybe some
configurable shortcut keys. 
And long text input, like e-mails.
For everything else, modern touch screens win hands-down. Can't compare
it to PDA touch screens or Tablet-PC or Kiosk style touch screens.
