    I know that it may not be the smartest idea to tote one's Tour around without any protection on/around it...but my Tour; as well as it's owner (i.e. me) seems to like it better as it is...without any skin/case/etc. on it.

    It just feels better in my hand without anything on it; and I think the Tour truly looks like the sexy device that it is without anything on it. I put a silicone skin on it from time to time; but when I look at it with the skin on..I'm just not feeling the way it looks. But without it on...lordy, lordy have mercy.

    Anyone else carry their Tour around the way it was brought into the world?

    I have never carried mine without at least a skin on it. I am far too concerned with scratches to let it go naked :-) But I do understand what you mean about the look of it without a case. It is a good looking device. Enjoy and be careful!!!

    The only type of protection that goes on any device I own is a PPC tech screen protector. I don't worry about case scratches because I am very care where i put or place the device and by the time I do get some I am already getting a new device

    I only have a belt holster. No case or skin for me. Naked feels and looks the best. I just couldn't see having something like an otterbox on it. Destroys the looks and feel. Funny how people get crazy worrying about a few scratches on their $500 berry, then get in the car on a highway behind a big rig and get stones thrown up at the car and not think twice.

    Yeah; a large reason for why I purchase a particular device that I do (such as my Tour); and why I spend the money that I do on it...is so that it's aesthetically pleasing to my eyes. I honestly could give two shi*s about whether others find what I own as being pleasing to the eyes or not. If it tickles my fancy; I'm good. If I was a metaphorical phone; and if I was a female...I would want to procreate with the Tour purely based on how it looks...hah :P.

    I see those iPhones looking at my Tour with those inviting eyes.

    I just have a screen protector on mine, though I'm thinking of getting an invisible shield skin for it.

    Has anyone else not even taken off the screen protector it shipped wearing? The one with the tab hanging down on the End and Back keys? I haven't...
    Mine is nude but I ordered a Decalgirl skin...will probably get another one later when they offer solid colors (my 8330 was Livestrong yellow w/ a yellow trackball).

    Interesting that you noted that. Just the other day, I took the original protector off of the scroll wheel on my iPod Photo 30gb from like 4 or 5 years ago. It seemed so white/clean compared to everything else.

    I'm still using mine, although I did trim the little tab off the bottom.

    I was using a skin on mine, but that changed once I put the black bezel on mine. Now its just too sexy to be hidden in that skin.

    Haha definitley..my phone is also a full time nudist (always empty phone pocket) but compared to how I'm paranoid and treat my Car the Tour gets about as much attention as a step child.

    Always use to carry totally nude with nothing in my phone pocket. I added PhantomSkinz once I got the Tour and it's just as good as nude.

    Phantom Skinz is great if you want to maintain the look if your Tour.

    If you want rugged, Otterbox Defender.

    mines has been naked from day one.. (on my third tour). First tour I carried it around in its invisible shield, but after the second one I've just been going commando with it. Love it in its holster

    Have been thinking about getting a screen protector and silicone case tho. Just because of the loose battery cover..
