Is anyone aware of any products/methods which would repair a scratch on a touch-screen navigation unit? The scratch isn't too bad, but if it can be repaired at a relatively low cost without replacing the screen then I'm down. My girlfriend mentioned some sort of "eraser," but I'm unsure what exactly she was talking about...

Eraser... shrug I would reccomend a fine grain sandpaper (like 3000) What you do is buff in a circular motion for a few minutes and then buff the opposite way. You won't even notice the scratch once you have done that.
