I'm not going to bother as I've had my touch since November and it stays in my pocket with my keys etc unprotected and it is pristine.
Its backside however, is a different story

I wouldn't mind getting a protector for the back of the phone... but for the screen it is just a waste of money! What's the point of having (probably) THE best screen on all mobile devices, if you're just going to put some horrible plastic stuff over it?

That's my 2p

I got the anti-glare film for my iPhone, it was easy to install and, in my opinion (of course ) makes the screen look and feel better than Mrs Dym's iPhone, which has no screen protector...

The Gelaskins are great in that you can peel them off and reposition them, and smooth air bubbles out as it's porous. I ordered on the buy-three-get-a-fourth-free offer and got my dad a couple, and some screen protectors. Had a go at applying the protector and it's far too easy to get the tiniest bit of fluff stuck under it. Gave up in the end.

Delivery was inexpensive and they arrived in under a week too. I love how you can match the desktop to the skin.

that's the one I've got on my touch and will be getting for the phone as soon as I go past the apple store again. it's brilliant, so nice to touch & easy to see in the office where the lights make it glary with the generic screen. It also makes it look much more attractive than the shiny surface, but like Dym, that's my opinion. I generally think Matt finish > Shiny (cheap).

I can understand that some people want the phone 'as it comes' but I'd be so, so gutted if anything happened to it. I dropped my touch while running and the case was damaged but not the device, thought it would have been without the caseo. I'd have been heartbroken otherwise and certainly don't want the phone damaged or scratched at all.
