Droid touchscreen less accurate than iPhone, Eris or Nexus One
Looks like the folks at MOTO Development Group came up with an interesting test on touchscreens. Unfortunately, it appears that Droid runs last of the pack when compared with Eris, iPhone and Nexus One. You can tell the ability of the touch controller to track a finger by the smooth lines. MOTO’s article even has the end result pictures that tell all. See the video below for their review:

Personally, I’ve been mad at the Droid on missing my input while trying to navigate some classified ads on ksl.com and craigslist.org. I always attributed it to my clumsy fingers. Now I have a much better excuse.
