IS YOUR iPad still SCRATCHLESS?

Mine has spent it's life in the Apple case. I only take it out occasionally to clean the inside surface of the case. I find that, at least with my iPhones, dirt can get in the case and scratch the back of the phone so I want to avoid that with the iPad. So far it is still pristine.
Perfect 
I got my iPad the day it came out. Put a silicon case on it in the car and then I put on a screen protector when I got home. Still no scratches on the back (due to the case) and no scratches on the front!

Gotta love Apple. Able to manufacture products that people want to keep PERFECT and PRISTINE, only to replace them 2 years later with something that will make you not care about your PERFECT and PRISTINE 2 year old POS.
Scratchless and debtless. Haven't dropped it yet, kind of afraid to even set it down
Glad to see your iPad owes no one.
Mine now has scratches around the charging port and headphone jack. I'm assuming this good considering there are no scratches on the back or front. My silver apple on the back is pristine. I've had it since day one of the 3G model and I still have my box ready to go waiting on iPad 2 release.
The glass on mine is still unscratched (knock on wood ), but I did get a dent right on the plug in when I dropped it off the bed. It hit right on the wooden frame in such a manner that it dented it there in spite of its leather cover.
I did some body work with a screwdriver and I can now plug the cord in and have had no further problems. (knock on wood).

I've had mine since May, and there isn't a scratch on it. Not one that I've noticed anyway. I originally had it in the Macally Bookstand, but I switched to the Apple Case in July. They have provided great protection.
Since April, and not a scratch or dent. It's perfect. Never had a screen protector. I use the Apple case, and sometimes take it out of there and just carry it in an iLuv zippered sleeve.
Yes....I picked up my iPad from the apple store, walked to best buy (in the same mall) and had a screen protector applied and bought a silicone case for the back. When OtterBox came out with the Defender I bought that. It's as pristine as the day it came out of the box in spite of being dropped several time by my kids.......
I've had mine since launch, and no scratches. Not a one.
It's sporting a Belkin Grip Vue and nothing on the screen.

Mine is! Of course it's still in it's original packaging, wrapped, and under my christmas tree. Hahaha.
Exact same here. I've had mine for about 4-5 months now and it's still in prestine condition. I refuse to use any other case because the Apple one has been designed with some thought - everything rests a couple of mm above the front surface of the bezel/display rather than being in contact with it.
This gives the advantage that debrist cannot scratch the display/bezel as you remove the device from the case. Exact opposite for other cases.
