Grats on that dude, my ipod 2g is totally fine till now without any screen protectors and all… Wouldnt comment on the backside though lol.
The back is **stainless steel **- i’m sure even you know how that holds up to scratches. The front glass on the other hand is a totally different story. In other words scratching has absolutely nothing to do with the strength of the material
Totally agree with you - in fact i am one of those guys who have found the ipod touch a tough nut to scratch I do use a screen protector however since it allows me more freedom to carry it in the pocket with other stuff (read: keys, loose change etc) but as such a screen protector is not urgently required.
