When we tried out the Kindle a while ago, my son immediately began to touch the screen. But no, the only effect was to leave marks.  
This morning in our local Border’s I noticed that they had little notices stuck above the screens of their enquiry system. They said that these were not touch screen systems and that people should use the tracker ball and button.  
It is interesting how things come to be expected ….
