Well, it looks to me like Sprint did cheap out on the screens and I highly doubt its a battery saving issue causing a low shallow view angle on it. I have gone as far as ripping a Touch apart to look for the polarizing film and remove it to see if it is indeed that film. But I did not find it. I did find a screen protector like film glued to the actual screen that was glued on with a very heavy duty glue. Took me a long time to peel it off with out cracking the screen but I managed to do it. But sadly that was not the polarizing film. It turned out to be a dark shade film that reduced the brightness of the actual screen.
