...Materials... the back is going to get scratched the second it goes in our pocket.. I have noticed the front of my 4gb white nano has a protective film across it, under the general plastic wrapping (which is a good protector for it a the moment lol). Do they make it from this stuff to shame u into buying anotherone as soon as it looks crappy and scratched lol... seems a apple secret... not ultra fussy about it, always make me think that once the back get mullered enough they expect you to get another one lol....

anyway i do like the nano lots, so do a few commuters each day cheeky gits trying to grab a feel of the nano . Apple are onto a winner... Just becareful you dont forget its in your work shirt pocket before it reaches the washing machine :O
Kind Regards

Because it makes your iPod look like crap after a few months and you'll be more compelled to buy a new one.
