Screen Protector, how do I know if it's installed?
 

My wife graciously purchased my PPC6800 from USCC. She was not aware of the fact that it was used, (she was just told that she was getting a really good deal on it), that is, someone had returned it after using it for 10 days. When I got it, the paper that the screen protector came on, you know, the one that comes with it, well it had been removed.. so I assumed that it was installed... but how can I tell? I'm concerned that the person who installed it may have done it incorrectly and given up and tossed it and maybe I'm scratching my screen? I have a few very very very light scratches, they are VERY EXTREMELY hard to see unless I am outside in the bright sunlight and I hold it a certain angle. I ordered a screen protector, but I don't want to have TWO screen protectors on it... I tried looking at the corners of the screen with an eye piece that is used for looking at diamonds in hopes that I might be able to see any edges of a screen protector, but I can't see any...

any ideas... thoughts? :scratch:

I have a screen protector on mine and think of it as Saran Wrap like what you would use on food. It is a thin clear film that goes over the LCD. However, it doesnt fit PERFECTLY meaning there is a small gap on each side (or one side if you dont get it centered) and you certainly can tell if it is installed or not. If you have any doubt then it likely is NOT installed.

You can always get a small piece of scotch tape and apply it to a corner of the screen. If you have a screen protector on, there's a good chance you will peel it off, since the actually screen shouldn't peel off. But just like the other person said, if you can't see any corner of a screen protector, there's a good chance you don't have one on. At least if you get a good protector, it should hide some (if not all) of the scratches that are already on the screen.
