I had a few ipods before and I always bought the toughskins for them. These are the best cases made so I had to get one for my new Zune. I was surprised (as other reviews mentioned) that the toughskin didn't come with a hard plastic screen protector like it does for the classic ipods. This doesn't worry me too much as the toughskin does come with a laminate that you can put over your screen. Just be sure to be in a clean/ dust free environment (read: no air movement, no greasy fingers) and be sure to place the laminate at one side at the very corner, and work your way over to get rid of any air bubbles. Try to do it in one shot. I also noted that other reviewers used the plastic that the toughskin came in as a screen protector, just cut it down a little larger than screen size. This is a perfect solution if you want more protection.
The only issue I noticed it that the touch pad is covered by a thin layer of toughskin. That thin layer is enough to make it just a bit harder to be accurate with the touch pad. No big deal as you get accustomed to it quickly. But if you would rather ditch that part of it, you can take a sharp razor blade or exacto knife and cut along the outside groove around the touchpad. This gives you perfect access to the touchpad, just like the ipod toughskins.
This thing rocks, it made my Zune that much better!

The Speck Dragon Toughskin Rubberized Case for Zune 80 GB is a terrific product for your money. This case does not leave the buttons exposed like most others do. If you look closely at the product pictures you can see the button areas are covered. I would say this is the main reason I purchased this product over others. The other reviewer brings up a very good point. I would totally agree that the screen protector (glorified sticker) provided is not very good. If you mess up and have to try a second time to stick it on you might as well throw it away. There is a full length clear piece of plastic inside the case that has tabs sticking out the top and bottom. The tabs hold the case squarely in the display box during shipping. When you unpack the case save this piece of plastic. All you have to do is cut off the tabs and trim it to fit over the screen area. Make sure to leave a little overlap so the edges of the case around the screen have something to grip. There is also a cardboard insert (actual Zune size) that works very well as a template. The case is rubber and fits the Zune very snugly so it holds the trimmed piece of plastic without slipping. You are able to use the full Zune button functionality even though they are fully covered by this case. I was worried about being able to "touch" scroll without pressing the actual center button and it wasn't a problem. I would suggest using something non alcohol based to clean any plastic screen protector as it tends to haze even after cleaning it once with the wrong stuff. The only down side I can see is that rubber tends to show dust and may be hard to keep clean. Using a can of compressed air and a light coating with a silicone based cleaner ought to do the trick. With not a lot of after market case options available yet for the Zune 80 GB this ain't a bad way to go!
