Buy a silicone case and screen protector from mobileden.co.uk I have had my phone for three months now and have no scratches, cracks or dents. The screen protector allows me to see the display in direct sunlight and I bounced my N900 on the floor twice, one from the cross trainer in the gym and on concrete outside on the street. I shudder to think what it would look like if I had not invested some cash for the silicone case.
