I use one. Have since day one. I've dropped my phone in between my car seats once. If it weren't for the SP I'm positive I'd have a scratched phone. I carry the phone in the same pocket as my keys. I'm trying to move away from that though. Maybe I'll go without someday but for now it is on.
I use a screen protector (Steinheil Ultra Crystal). Put me squarely in the "It's easier to replace a screen protector than the entire screen" camp. When I had the phone naked for the first week or so, I felt like I had to baby the phone to protect it. Now, with the screen protector + Otterbox Commuter case I just use the EVO without worrying about scuffs and scrapes.
No doubt, the phone looks way better naked, but I like the fact that I don't have to worry about scratches and such. That peace-of-mind is valuable to me...
