Hello,
I was wondering if the touch screen will respond to a stylus or even a woman's nails?
My wife would like to switch from the BB to a Android phone but the problem is she has nails..
Does anyone know if the screen will respond to nails or even a stylus??

Thanks,

The touch screen works off heat and will not work with nails nor a stylus.

Well although the answer above is correct, a stylus will not work, the reasoning behind it is incorrect. Capacitive screens do not sense heat, quick explanation they "sense" a distortion in the electromagnetic field on the screen.
Google "Capacitive Touch Screens" for a more detailed explanation.
