Is the remote touch a required option? Would like to order the RC F without it. Seems hard to use and change radio stations, etc.

I do not believe it is an option. I had no difficulty using the touch pad, nor do I believe most laptop users will.

It's not too bad, you'll get a feel for it after a few days. If you'll activate the lexus app suite on your smartphone and link your Slacker and Pandora account to it then you can use the steering wheel controls for all your audio needs. The touch pad pad comes with the premium option which I imagine most dealers are ordering them with. Trying to find a base model will be like finding a unicorn. Again, it's not that bad.... But it takes some getting use to....its sensitive.

I found that if you adjust the response feedback down that it is easier to use (as in your finger doesn't jump all over the place when the pad shakes letting you know you can push to select).
