I think the point is that you shouldn't have to go to extremes to keep these scratch free. In a cotton pocket for 4 hours or in a lens cloth bag should NOT scratch these up.

I wraped my Nano back up in the plastic cover it came in, and took it back to the Apple store, exchanged it for a 6GB silver Mini, paying the restocking fee. Luckily they did not i…

I agree. The mini really is idea in terms of scratch resistance. This is ridiculous and, of course, when customers go in to the store and see the scratched up ipods they're going t…

Lol

there are so many case companies out there, they are so cheap on eBay or anywhere else. I have the hard case for my mini from Agent 18 and a silcon from iSkin, they both are well …

Yeah.. I don't think any cases have really been made for the nano yet, as it's a brand new product. I'm gunna get mine in a little once I can protect it. Sounds like the nanos scra…

i'll get mine in a few hours and let you know. i think it's just stupid people. the regular ipods scratch, that's life. you're not going to keep it perfect. what's the obsession wi…

I think these are much more sensitive than the regular ipods. I don't think anybody is expecting these to stay perfect, but they are expecting that breathing on them does not produ…

Well said. I agree 100%. It's a great product made of substandard material. I know it will get scratched - I'm not worried about that. Just didn't think it would get this scrat…

i put packing tape (that thick clear stuff you use on boxes) on the back, and left the original sticker on the front. then i trimmed it so the back piece folded over and protected …

I'd like to add that these do not ship with any type of pouch, bag or clip. It's just the clear film that I removed thinking it was "for shipping purposes only." Ibid, a $249 devic…

Please everybody stop getting so worked up, it's a music device, it's about functionality. If you want you can get some sticky paper and cut out a sticker over it, as for me I just…

If you only want 'functionality' then apple is not the way to go. there are other players with radio, recording etc that offer more functionality. Apple sells its products because …

I agree with lavar78 on this point too. I upgrade my iPods pretty frequently and by being meticulous, I always get top dollar for them which allows me to get the 'latest and greate…

I have just arranged to return my 4gb black nano because of the ease with which the front scratches. This device is a bit of a paradox. It is amazingly well designed ergonomicall…
