Does the new Video iPod scratch as easily as the old?

Good question!!!! I just got my new 80gb yesterday and I still have the plastic on it! I'm not going to remove it until I find a case for it.

Let's hope we find an answer!

I went to an Apple store tonight. I looked at several of the video Ipod in the store, wiped fingerprints off them and saw no scratches at all. The salesperson informed me that the Ipods had been on display for over two weeks. The older Ipods scratched after being on display for only a few days. The only scratches I noticed on the newer ones was on the center wheel, most likely caused by fingernails.

Has anyone else noticed this?

They still scratch as they did before!!! You can get a cleaner from iCleaner or Radtek... both will get rid of the scratches...

I've been to Bestbuy and Circuit City also, no scratches on any of the new video iPods yet. They must have switched to a scratch resistant plastic for the screens. I've looked at the new video iPods at the Apple store, Bestbuy, and Circuit City and none show the slightest scuff after a few weeks. The only scratch I saw was where someone intentionally damaged one of the screens with a knife or something.
