The P5 would likely be Romeo ...
Seriously, touchscreens vary greatly, and a great deal seems to depend
on the underlying software controlling and sensing it. ATM's are almost
completely foolproof. They tend to have a small number of large touch
areas on a screen. My Kindle Fire HD is OK, it's big enough that the
"keyboard" has big enough touch areas for one with arthritic fumble
fingers like me, however it's spell "correct" will make you look like
you just arrived from another sector of the galaxy. My Samsung Galaxy 5
has a smaller keyboard of course, but surprisingly, I can text at a
reasonable rate with my two largest digits and not make a lot of
misteaks. Most will be corrected properly.
Daughter bought a new laptop with Win 8. Wow! Many years ago, an
earnest 2Lt described LAPES [it Googles fine] which we were going to use
to get our gear out of the C-130 on missions. When he finished, one of
my troopers put up his hand and when called on asked, "Just how drunk
were the guys when they invented this." Applicable to Microsoft and Win
8 too.
