Hi Brack
No, you don't need to get out more, people ask me stuff about my nails all the time.
I don't use an iphone, but I know what you're saying about their touchscreen. I looked at the Palm Pre's when they came out but it was the same type of screen as the iphone. I have an HTC phone that does come with a stylus and works great with my nails alone on the touchscreen. In fact, I have an easier time using my nails than I do using a stylus.
xoxo,
Anya
