edge series

The screen of my Handspring Neo was getting small scratches on the face after two years of use so I decided to spring and buy a pack of these screen protectors. The result is that my screen is protected, but there are some things about the protectors I don't like.

Putting them on your system is fairly easy, as long as you follow the directions. I messed up the first one I put on by putting my fingers on the side that was going to be face down on the PDA. So after starting over, the protector went on smoothly. I didn't have any problems with bubbles on the screen like the other reviewers had. I had one or two, but they were easily taken care of with the included smoother.

I'm not saying that it is perfect. I don't like the way the stylus moves over the screen now. It has almost a sticky quality when you are writing on it. It's not too bad, but it is annoying to deal with. The other problem is that the protector doesn't cover the entire screen. It leaves a small gap around the edge, about 1-2 mm. On my Handspring this is when dust and other assorted debris collect.

If you are worried about your screen getting damaged, then these are a good buy. Just be forewarned, they aren't perfect, but they do get the job done.

I've been using these screen protectors for 3 years now and they are wonderful. After damaging my first Palm's screen with the stylus (yes the screen will scratch after awhile) I found this product and tried it out. It does require some patience to put on correctly, but if you follow instructions and use the enclosed squeegee-card (or a credit card) it will go on smoothly and without bubbles. I actually prefer the feel of writing on the protector then writing on the screen itself. I usually get 3-6 months out of my protector before I replace.

I tried these out today - they are horrible! First of all, they are a pain to put on. I went through 3 of the 12 just to get one on "correctly." Then, after I got in on, my Visor screen was converted into a bubble farm. There were bubbles everywhere that were impossible to smooth out. This product is a hollow chocolate bunny - it looks tasty, but then you find out it's empty. Take my advice - either take great care of your screen in the first place, or find a better product than this.
