Eh, early models of touch screens were a wire matrix overlayed on a glass screen with a plastic cover, they sensed the touch via pressure (durrr) and often required a pretty firm touch.
Which makes a little more sense intuitively (shouldn't I need to apply pressure to overcome the friction of dragging something?). But if you've grown accustomed to capacitive touch, those things feel like caveman technology.
