I've been pondering doing the brushed look to avoid the hassle of worrying about scratches, but if Brasso works that good I might give that a shot first. Thanks for the personal feedback Aaron.

I would be a little nervous about using a Dremel tool, but my 5.5G iPod was horribly scratched, and with a little Brasso, a soft cloth, and some patience, it was improved to almost-new condition. There is one tiny scratch in the screen that was a bit deeper than all of the others that was not completely removed, but it's hardly noticeable. Put a little Brasso on a soft cloth and use gentle circular motions. Don't press down too hard or you'll leave new swirly scratches, but even if you do, just over it again with a lighter touch and they will come off. The key is patience -- use almost no pressure, and go over and over it until all scratches all gone. I was able to restore mine to beautiful condition, and then I promptly went out and bought a hard acrylic case that completely covers and protects it. Here is the case I bought and I highly, highly recommend it. Completely protects the iPod from future scratches and looks very attractive: http://www.dlo.com/products/videoshell_Prod.tpl?command=showpage&cart=11901443252097497 I just wanted to say that, IMHO, Brasso works just as well as the products specifically sold to remove iPod scratches.
