Who knows; it seems like everyone wants to put them in car radios too, which still strikes me as unbelievable.

My car radio is a giant touch screen. Horrible idea. I would much rather have buttons. I understand they want the buttons to change depending on context, but even then it would be better to have buttons surrounding a screen with the screen changing to show what the buttons do.

IBM used to make cash registers with little LCD panels on the physical buttons. Of course these have probably been replaced with touch screens.
