Well... the screen probably won't scratch -- but it might. I speak
from experience when I say that the iPhone/iPod screen certainly *can*
be scratched in the course of normal use.
Screen protectors (at least some) can also be useful for
glare prevention. There are a couple nice matte overlays (the names of
which escape me) that can make the device far more usable under adverse
lighting conditions. As an added bonus, some of these overlays have a
far smoother feel than the glass -- I've found that the bare glass is
prone to "catch" a bit, especially in humid areas. Screen protectors can
help with this (or at least some can.)
As for other protection, Griffin makes a two-piece hard shell that does
a marvelous job at protecting the device from impact damage. They make
one for the iPod Touch, the iPhone, and the iPhone 3G. |
