Anyone have one yet? I'm considering one and was wondering if the new one's have the same screen problem as the Nanos

They scratch, not crack.

I've used these for all my electronics. Phone, Cameras, my mini and my new nano. Also for my wife's new iPod Video. No scratches, no cracks...a required investment:

Screen Protector from Radio Shack (http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2103102&cp=&kw=screen+protecto r&parentPage=search)

Alternatively check out the Invisible Shield.

I use these also and they work great.

The Invisible Shield looks awesome. I had only used the radio shack one because it was easy to pop down to the nearest one and slap it on. I'm going to have to order some of the invisible shields. Thanks!

Oh I read in Business Week that something lke 5% of them had to be recalled due to cracked screens, when they first came out.

I have a new iPod.

They do scratch super ridiculously easy.

If you order one, order an Invisible Shield at the same time.

If you care about scratches at all, do not carry your iPod anywhere before you install some kind of protection.

I have the Invisible Shield on mine. It's great. Makes the surface feel a little more plastic-y, but is great protection. If you apply it perfectly (not real easy), it doesn't distort the look much at all.

All the info you could need about the new iPod's you can find at the
iLounge (http://www.ilounge.com) forums.
