iPhone, iPod touch screen poll ends, accessory poll begins

With over 2,900 votes from iLounge readers, our latest poll—“Have you noticed any problems with your iPhone or iPod touch screen?” has ended. Readers could choose between noticeable scratches, oleophobic coating wear, other issues, no noticeable problems, or say they don’t own either device.

An overwhelming majority of respondents—81% of iPhone and iPod touch owners and 69% overall—said they hadn’t noticed any problems with their iPhone or iPod touch screens, followed by 14% who said they didn’t own an iPhone or iPod touch. Among remaining owners of the devices, 9% said they had noticed scratches, 7% said they had noticed other issues, and 3% said they had seen their iPhone 3GS’ oleophobic coating already begin to wear down or peel. Thanks for all your votes!

Our new poll covers iPod and iPhone accessories. We’d like to know what type of accessory you most need for your iPod or iPhone. Do you need a new case or protective film, or perhaps speakers, or new earphones? Or do you need a new in-car accessory, or Bluetooth wireless headset, or a battery pack? Maybe you need a computer dock, or an in-home charger, or some other accessory? Or do you not need a new accessory? Our new poll, “What type of accessory do you most need for your iPod or iPhone?” lets you answer that question. You can find the iLounge Poll in the far left-hand column of the main iLounge.com homepage. Cast your vote today!

Sorry, I thought I was just registering to see posts before….first timer…go figure.

I have seen a few articles on accessories for iPhone - some questions arise personally…

1. External keyboard - with new landscape keyboard, is this really necessary. I find landscape keyboard easy and quick to use - very few mistakes. However, I do not like how much screen left for displaying content when landscape keyboard is in use. Perhaps there is a play for attachable keyboard?

2. Battery charger / extender - I find the 3GS battery sufficient - however I am not a extensive cell phone user as some I know. Normal use, most charges last two days for me.

3. Protective cases - the best yet I think….
