I seem to recall the whole screen sort of clicking. I don’t remember why it did that though.

  It was just another input button. It had capacitive touch and you could also press on the screen as a button. So there was a touch and a click. This more or less replaces the other BB's trackball functionality (which I think you could click as a button). So moving your finger around the touchscreen was like moving the trackball and pressing the screen as a button was like pressing the trackball button. At a time where most apps were being designed for the touchscreen iPhone, most devs didn't take advantage of the Storm's device specific hardware, which is one of the reasons why it wasn't very memorable...

    Ah that makes sense. I never had one myself, I’d moved over to a G1 at that point. But I do miss my old blackberry.

    I thought the screen was just loose. Had no clue it was a button. Granted I only tried one unit.
