now because the ipod touch is a touch screen i would think they would make the screen pretty hard to scratch, is it. i know im going to get a case but depends on how urgent and whats the best kind to buy?

I'll tell you that the iPod touch screen is great, scratch-wise. It smudges like hell, but I never got a single scratch on the front, only on the back. And that's on both of my iPod touches.

No idea what case is good. Could check out the iSkins?

Shouldn't do. For my first iPod, I had it for about 3 months, and I wound the headphones all the time. The back got scratched up, but that was inevitable.

I mean, if you really are worried about the back, get a case. But otherwise you'll be fine. My iPod video used to get scratches on the screen, but I've not seen a single one on the touch yet. I guess what matters to me is the screen, nothing else. That's what you're watching, right? It's a shame that Apple put the chrome back on the iPod... it's pretty, until it gets scratched up.

All the best.
