I rarely notice any fingerprints on my beautiful, high-resolution iPhone screen.
And I much prefer using a REAL computer with a REAL file system and REAL USB connectors for loading arbitrary data and organizing it into an arbitrary directory hierarchy and begin able to work on those files with any arbitrary combination of a REAL command line for extra powerful, customizable tools and REAL power GUI apps.
The multiple-degree-of-freedom stylus like the iPencil could give even more power to a real computer. Unfortunately, the thinking at Apple seems to be that if you want the power of a great stylus, you'll have to give up the real computer and use it on the toy OS that Apple seems to want us all to move to eventually.
Counterpoint: I notice fingerprints on my iPhone screen. I'm constantly wiping it on my jeans to get rid of bits of dirt, finger grease and other stuff.
