The RAZR2 does tactile feedback via vibration when the front screen has the touch-screen activated (in music mode, etc.).
However, I believe most peoples concern with the lack of "tactile feedback" is around the not being able to sense where you are without having to look at the device. Similar to a keyboard, where the "f" and "j" keys have that little nub on them to help you know where you are without looking at it. Heck to see proof of the benefits of a physical button, look at all the teenagers who are texting their friends while talking to some other friends and not looking at their phone. They know which key they are on and how many times this clicked it to write a message and send very quickly.

To me a vibration is no different than an audio response, which the iPhone does do when you tap on a virtual key.
Don't be mistaken though, I still picked up an iPhone yesterday. :)
