It depends ... do you have a pocket protector?

I enjoy my BoxWave anti-glare coating - it makes using the onscreen keyboard much easier, and I feel good using the thumb keyboard - no/few fingerprints and easy to clean. I feel better being tactile (touching with fingers) with my tablet with the protector on. The BoxWave ones are the super thick washable ones, and yes, they are very thick but I feel improve the responsiveness of the touch screen.

Don't ditch your 770 case. That was an n800 or n810 comment, i'm sure.

Get a screen protector. Find a clean room (dust free) and install it.

I will be a dissenter. I hated my screen protector. I could never get it to go on without blemishes and worse, it created phantom screen taps that drove me and my N800 crazy. I stopped using it and the device is much more reliable and easier to read. I haven't scratched my screen yet.

YMMV.

I second the BoxWave brand. Works great and much, much better than the cheapo generic ones that require trimming.

Has anyone used the "invisible shield" screen protector for the N800?

They claim it will never scratch and they back it up with a lifetime warranty.

I'm just curious if anyone has tried this and if it's all that it's cracked up to be

It can scratch (though probably due to me applying it incorrectly). I haven't tried the lifetime warranty though it works by returning the old screen protector.

Apparantly there's an issue with removing the adhesive after a few months though (another user reported it).

Yeah, I'm using the Invisible Shield brand, I've used it for other portable devices like my iPod and my T-mobile Dash. It does a great job protecting the screens of all devices, and it's relatively easy to apply without getting a bunch of bubbles (which was a concern of mine for a big screen like the n800).

My only issue is that the plastic is thick and when using the stylus, it's a bit mushy/sticky compared to the non-protected screen. It's not quite as smooth. It's not really an issue when just clicking on the screen with the stylus, but it feels a little unnatural when dragging the stylus around the screen. It's hard to describe and I'm not sure if other brands of screen protectors would feel the same.

It's a trade-off, as I'm sure the screen would get totally scratched up over time without the protector, which for me, is rather heart-breaking because the screen is so nice on the n800.

Overall, I'm happy with it, and I strongly advocate everyone to slap some sort of screen protector on their tablets.

Buy a good screen protector made specifically for the purpose of using with scribbler , that might cost a little more then normal protectors but is worth the money .
