I wanted to make a joke here, so I was trying to think of a device where a touchscreen is laughably unnecessary. Then I realized "a printer" already was the answer.

@bosskev: Toilet. If that doesn't count as a device... then a lamp.

@bill cant fart: Actually, I could see a touchscreen being very handy on a toilet. Such a visual display could let you choose different levels of flushing, depending upon what's in the bowl--for instance, liquid, solid or corn on a log raft. Just touch the matching pictograph, voilà, an efficient water-saving flush!

@bosskev: Touchscreens are great for a wi-fi printer. You can use them to enter in the wireless key, and to determine what all you want to do with photographs. You can remove red eye or crop or anything else.

@bonerobo: "You can remove red eye or crop or anything else."

I can't imagine ever doing anything remotely like any of that EXCEPT at my computer. I mean, why in the hell would somebody want to do photo editing/adjusting/cropping at the damned printer and NOT at their computer? It makes zero sense to me.
