On Screen Back button in Android?

Droid OS is great but after using my mobile phone for almost a week one thing i started feeling is why doodes at android did not think of giving a virtual on screen back buttons, every time if i want to go back from one screen to another i have to use my physical soft keys on the device often this is annoying, its same for almost all the apps from settings to game the only way to go to back screen is using physical back soft key.

though few phones comes with capacitive touch buttons but majority of android mobile phones in the market are with physical buttons i am very much annoyed of pressing back button every time and i am worried about wearing of buttons very soon.

some times i feel the android ui design is ok, but i think device manufacturers should stop integrating physical buttons ont he droids, i bet if a person is a heavy mobile user i am sure the back button will wearout within a year and also another concern is there is no insurance or warranty claim for woren out parts due to heavy usage :P.

Guys what do you say should android OS must incorporate soft backbutton to navigate between screens or should device manufacturers should comeup with capacitive touch screens on the mobiles?

Strongly back your point ... soft keys for all screens.

An important thread poorly commented yes I totally agree and have the same concerns. I actually arrived here while googling for a solution if anyone has implemented some piece of software to throw a dumb left arrow on the screen.
