if you use compact fluorescent bulbs, make sure your touch lamps aren't
designed to cycle through varying levels of brightness. The dim setting
on the lamp causes the bulb to flicker annoyingly. And since the bulb
doesn't come on instantly, I often assume I missed the lamp and tap it
again, causing it to flicker. Annoyingly.

You can actually buy 3 level compact fluorescent bulbs.  We've got one
in a lamp in our family room that is made to take 3 level bulbs.  It works great!

Cheers,
