I got the ClearProtector full body armor.

It took two hours to apply correctly!!!

It was very hard getting the back one aligned, but after an hour of work, I got it aligned. It does not seem as "clear" as it proclaims.

I then tried the side strips. It took almost no time to do the first and last ones, but the second and third were a pain. Trouble is, all four strips did not make it all the way around the phone. There was a 2mm gap on the corner between the first and last ones (I went counter-clockwise). There were no bubbles, misalignment, or overlapping strips to explain it. I suppose I could have removed them and started over, stretching them a bit, but I decided not to.

I didn't like the feel of it on the sides, so about two hours later I ripped them off.

I don't like the feel of Clear Protector or its ilk (Zagg invisibleShield, Clear-Coat, etc.) -- too rubbery for all but the bottom. I cannot imagine using it on the screen, for which I need an ultra-smooth ultra-clear glossy frictionless surface. I held up the screen protector and looked at it, and it was very cloudy. I decided I'm not going to mess up my screen with that, and threw it away.

I'll keep the bottom protector on for now, but might remove it later.

I have for years enjoyed WriteSHIELD -- they go on ultra-clear and are ultra-smooth, and the instructions and equipment show you to remove bubbles and dust specs without messy solutions like soap and water, and without applying large amounts of pressure or sliding credit cards -- you simply clean it off with pieces of tape. No liquid or soap is required. Contact them and ask for N900 screens, and if enough of us ask, they'll do it.
