I'm never Going back to a slider by incase. I have had about 3 of them and each one scratched my bezel and plastic on the back. I also used them for a whole each too.
Sliders in my opinion should only be trusted if there are silicon bumpers on th inner part of the case like my ecoshield agent 18 case.

my brother has had his phone in a slider for over a year and its in perfect condition

only small scracthes = worth it not to have added bulk of other cases
 
Easy fix for the scratched logos. Well, not so much a fix, more like insurance: Scotch Tape. I don't know what they look like when taken off, but I put tape (plus a section taped onto itself for easy removal) over my :apple: logo as well as "iPhone" on the back of my 3GS.

Idk why I did it, just boredom I guess. Might help resale value, might not. And I always have my PS Air Jacket on it, so it's not like I look like a moron while talking on it.

I love your scotch tape idea. I had medical tape as a "cover" for my ipod touch. Now that I just ordered an iphone I was thinking that the best thing would be to get a real case, but I guess I can combine both ideas and have the best of both worlds!
