I tried the new Force touch at retail. Single click is perfect, and double click...had a ton of latency. Anyone else think so?

What in the hell is wrong with buttons? They are easy to understand and work one hundred percent of the time. I have to use one at work, and I'll never buy one of these crappy button-less trackpads for personal use. Click-and-drag is a mind-melting experience.

Tip:

System Preferences -> Accessibility -> Mouse & Trackpad -> Trackpad options -> Enable dragging without drag lock

i personally love it... dragging by tapping - so without needing to push or click

That's my feeling with the current generation of Android devices which got rid of the 3 buttons below the screen.
