Re: Does the TP2 really need a screen protector?

So after having the Invisible Shield on my XV6700 and Mogul and being pretty satisfied with it, I decided to get it for the Touch Pro 2. I noticed that the gummy texture of it interfered a bit with the finger swipes - something that didn't come up on the previous phones because I was primarily using the stylus. But it was definitely a bit harder to scroll left and right in Manila, and using Cookie's Home Tab, I would always accidentally open an app when I was just trying to swipe up to view the second page of icons. Plus, the edges of the IS accumulated lint and dust, and the whole thing generally got really annoying.

After reading through this thread I decided to go with the Steinheil SGP Anti-Fingerprint, and I am a LOT happier with it. The install is a total no-brainer especially compared with the Invisible Shield, and it's just so much easier to use the phone with the smoother texture. The Anti-Fingerprint does cut down on the phone visibility a tad, so I am considering getting the SGP Crystal and trying that out. Another nice thing about SGP is they come in packs of two, so if I get the Crystal and don't like it, it won't cost me any more money to go back to the Anti-Fingerprint.
