i just got the env3 a week ago and love it. i had a touch screen earlier this year and could not stand it, texting was horrible and the touchscreen overall i just was never able to get used to after a months use.  id say if you need a phone right now, go wit hthe env3

^I read this too. But the problem is that reviews tend to compare it to capacitive touch screens (such as the iPhone or the Palm Pre), which have significantly better responsiveness.

OP: It really depends on what you want. If you want a touch screen phone with a slightly better web browser and other online capabilities, get the enV touch. If you just want a simple phone with a full keyboard for texting, get the enV3.

I would say EnV3 just because any touch screen besides the iPhone's is really unresponsive.  My brother has a touch screen LG of some kind and it is TERRIBLE.

I got an enV Touch on Saturday and my brother got an enV3, and we've both been very happy with our phones so far. It's all about what you're looking for. I haven't had any issues with the touch screen responsiveness. I got the phone thinking I'd sparingly use the touch screen for texting and stuff, but with the ability to flip the phone horizontal and get a full touch screen keyboard, I've been primarily texting with the touch screen.
