OK I think I have TS, also dubbed the Touch Syndrome. I use my iPod Touch a lot, and even more so when I installed Jailbreak.

Every time I see a glossy LCD screen I touch it as if it had touch capabilities. I don't know what's wrong with me, but just the other day I attempted to drag an icon to the recycling bin with the tip of my fingers on my brother's 22" flatscreen LCD. He looked at me like I was an idiot, and attempted to take my iPod away claiming that I was using it way too much.

I also work at Office Depot, and we have a bunch of LCDs on display, so I am finding myself touching the screen thinking it has touch technology. It's a weird behavior and I don't even think about it until I realize that it's not a touch screen.


Just the other day I saw a customer with an iPhone browsing the PCs. He set his iPhone aside next to a Sony Vaio and started touching the screen. I think he had TS, too.

I keep doing it to my LCD at home. It gets annoying when I can't move things with touching haha.

I Love my Touch so much and use it all the time. But I'm yet to accidentally attempt using another device as a touchscreen.

I keep trying to zoom in with my GPS using the "touch" method. I'm glad I'm not the only one!
Funny how fast these motions become second nature!
