i think all the touch phones needs a screen protector. even a little dirt can scratch the screen, so get one.

I have put them on mine. But for what its worth, my hero went 3 weeks without one, and not a single flaw.

Always seemed to me that the hero might be a special type of smudge free glass or something. Just slipping the phone into and out of my pocket removed all the fingerprints and smudges. Maybe it was my imagination.

Its a glass screen. not plastic like a resistive screen (Touch pro, diamond, 95% of other touchscreen phone except for android and iphone's) so it is much more scratch proof. Thats said, i have seen some 5 year old iPods that are F***ED UP with scratches. Basically, if you plan on being hard on your phone, get one.
