No probs, just literally ordered myself one (get the phone tuesday)

they come with a lifetime guarantee, so if they ever peel or scuff, the guys at Zagg will send another one out straight away.

If you have fitted similar before, then you'll be right at home with it, if not, and you want any tips, I'm forever putting them on for customers and certain things I've learnt make it a lot easier to get them perfect

Well, the last time I did it was on my Sony PSP, and it didn't come out so well.. So all the advice I can get will be great.

Can you post some photos of your N900 after the damage done?
Is there any way to still use the cases without damaging the unit?

Thanks!
It's hard to tell in the photo but the white specks are more evident in person.

The main points that will really help are -

The solution you get is alcohol based, and it will not hurt your phone. So when you have the sticker in your hand, not only absolutely soak it, but also spray the screen of the n900. That way, when you whack the sticker on, and its not perfect, you can simply slide it into place. (By soak, i mean it man, until the sticker is dripping!!)

When its in the right place, with a tissue, gently rub from the center to remove some of the bigger bubbles. When they reach the edge of the sticker, the excess solution is immediately absorbed by the tissue.

Then spray the top of the sticker. Not loads, but a good coverage. use the little card that comes with it to gently glide over the screen, removing any remaining bubbles. Then dry with the tissue again.

For edges, if you do the main part first, and let the edge bits dry a little (5 mins) before you press them down, they will stick much better. There are some good vids on the zagg website regarding corners and edges.

It will look pretty rough for about 2 days, little bubbles here and there, and a speckled effect. That will disappear totally, and the finish will be perfect!

It takes some time, and patience, but like I said, the most important thing is to go to town with the spray solution that comes with it, it means you can make mistakes, move the sticker into the right spot, unpeel it ect. without worrying about ruining the sticker.

Generally when I do a full body one for an iphone/psp/ds ect, i'll use just about 80% of the spray/solution. Always a good idea to leave the phone turned off for an hour or so after you have fitted the kit, just to ensure any excess amount of liquid has dryed

PHEW. Hope that helps in some way!!

yep that solotion is awesome isnt it- it wets it but doesnt loose the stick on the sticky part(so once its dry it sticks nice)- that not only allows you to slide the zag protectors into position but it also cleans any dust and stuff of the phone and zag protector

When I first started putting them on, I'd only lightly spray the protector, thinking that the solution would destroy my phone. So of course, I'd place the protector down, and inevitably have to unpeel it to get it positioned better, and without enough solution, it pulls all the sticky bit off, and leaves horrible little raised bumps, looks very nasty.

Hardest invisi fit I ever did was on my 17 inch Toshiba...that was ridiculous. Went through 5 sprays, and nearly ended up punting my laptop through the patio window in anger!! Worth it in the end...just!
