Yup, thats is absolutely right. If the UI gets this kind of big controls, capacitive screens wont be a problem to implement. Although i dont miss it much, but it would be a welcome change, specially for phones without physical keyboards. Although there are many great sips available, the resistive screen does misses some taps which is painful while typing in hurry
I think I would be even more in love with Windows Mobile when first 6.5 phone will be released. I dont mind the delay in release, if its gonna be great.
