I'm guessing someone didn't like my post very much. If you want to better understand what I mean about lack of tactile feedback try using a touch screen remote control. Heck, try using one of those keyboards that project onto your desk and tap on a wooden board for a bit instead of a regular keyboard.

Tactile feedback tells your brain that you actually DID something without you having to look and observe the actual result. Even though the iPhone doesn't have real tactile feedback I found it very odd to use the on-screen keyboard when the phone is on vibrate. Even the little clicky sound it makes helps in making it easier to use.
