    Screen Protectors?

    Got an inexpensive MP3 Player for Christmas with touch-screen technology. Just wonder what you guys think about the use of screen protectors to protect the integrity of the screen? Any opinions welcome.

    Depends. I have tried quite a few and didn't like many of them. The latest LOML got from Amazon I really like. It's actually more of a matte finish that a shiny one. Shes doesn't like them, but I really do.

    She ordered them awhile ago, so I have no idea the brand or anything. I know it was one of the super cheap ones, though.

      Thanks, Joe. I was also wondering if they (the screen protectors themselves) can damage the screen if you decide to remove them.

        No they don't, unless you use contact cement to hold the sucker down. DAMHIK

          i'm on my a second for an IPOD touch, the first one lasted a year or so and got a scratch. Easy to remove and replace. Worth it, I think. I just got one off eBay.

          If your only tool is a hammer, you tend to treat all problems as if they were nails.

            I've used one on the last 3 phones and like them alot. The phones looked new when I took them off. Only downside is that they seem to take on grease/oil easier. Just take your time installing it to avoid bubbles.
            I reject your reality and substitute my own.

              Well, I guess I wasted my money on that bottle of contact cement then!
