Today i researched the topic of touch screen phones. I wanted to know how the whole concept started and where the idea for them forst emerged. I foujnd my answers in a newspaper article of The Register Gaurd published on Jun 24, 2000. The article discusss how Microsoft doesn't want to divulge any of their plans, bu the article did mention how the company is investing 3 billion dollars worth of reasearch into the subject.It was interesting to read this article because it talks of "scriblleng a note to a friend on a touch screen phone".
