1. A device comprising:
a mechanical input element, wherein at least a portion of the mechanical input element is disposed within the device, and the mechanical input element is manipulable by a user to cause the mechanical input element to move within the device;
a touch-sensitive surface, wherein the touch-sensitive surface comprises:
a first portion configured to detect one or more touch inputs from one or more objects external to the device, and
a second portion configured to detect the movement of the mechanical input element; and
circuitry configured to differentiate between the one or more touch inputs and the movement of the mechanical input element detected at the touch-sensitive surface based on a difference in one of magnitude, size, or shape of a capacitance measurement associated with the one or more touch inputs and a capacitance measurement associated with the movement from the mechanical input element.
