i have the touch and ive gone almost a year without the screen protector. while my screen is not scratch free, its very hard to find where the scratches are. believe me, it can take a beating (ive had my touch in my pocket with keys, and change before).

if you are really careful with your device and make sure the pen or screen isnt carrying grit, then chances are youll be fine without a screen protector
