I don't agree that it makes sense to disable one input method if another is available. Make it a user configurable option to use one or the other, but do not disable using both.
I have a touchscreen desktop with second screen. I want both mouse and touchscreen available. I use both at the same time. What bothers me is the virtual keyboard pops up on the non touch screen if that is in focus.
With convergence phone, I think there might be more of a case for doing this. But I would still want and need to be able to use the touchscreen at times, even if I have a mouse attached.
