My only concerns are:

Are they shipping out ASAP, So I'll have it ready when I pick up my phone on June 4th?

Website lists available now for all but the Mirror Finish... Anyone use a mirror protecter from them? last one i used made a rainbow effect when viewing...

Are they cut correctly for the EVO screen... front camera cut out or does it lay over?

I have never seen a screen protector on the correct device cover up the cam.

My TP2 came with one...actually both my TP2 came with a screen protector. Where did you see the screen shot of the box?

Both of my TP2 came with one.

My guess is that the EVO comes with one, but I prefer aftermarket screen protectors and I want one just in case one HTC doesn't include one.

EDIT: Guess I was wrong. Here is a pic from android forums compared to a scan of my TP2 box. TP2 lists a screen protector while the EVO box doesn't.

Someone has a screen shot of the Evo box contents and it does not list a screen protector.

may have to try seidio... clarivue sounds pretty good too. i feel like people rave about the others just because of the full body proection aspect. i only care about protecting the screen without hampering the touch experience too much.

good question. i assumed it doesn't... capacitive glass screens are less prone to scratches, right? seems like protectors aren't included as much with devices with those screens than with devices with resistive screens... or do many of them come with?

eh, i felt that way with the full body stuff a couple years ago... but then i realized i don't drop my phone anymore. i also leave the phone in its own pants pocket when i'm out (that's almost automatic), so i don't have to worry about coins/keys scratching against it. basically, i stopped treating it like a flip phone and i'm not worried about extreme scratches cuz i don't encounter them. minimal screen protection is all i need for those tiny scratches that tend to appear..

I change devices at least once a year for my main line. hell, my tp2 is flawless, screen and body, and i only have the stock sprint protector on it. I'm glad i didn't go with another full body like i did with the tp1. made it look uglier than it was - eventually. zagg and others alike annoy me more than satisfy.

I'll be happy if Sprint provides one!

It's all about personal preference and life style. Im in the military and I need military grade protection.

Has anyone tried XOSkins?

Looks like one of there employee's posted a deal on another thread here, for a full body for 11.96, but it is only a pre-order, and ships on June 4th.

+1 here!

I went out and got the zagg full body invisa shield put on my tp2 the day i got it... I hated it just like you said it was sticky and (IMO) made the touch screen too hard to use my finger wouldnt slide across the screen instead it made it skip around and that sucked! I went to the mall and bought a screen protector from one of those little kiosks it was made by cellet and it has been prefect ever since!

I also gotta say that as far as for the rest of the body of my phone, the zagg shield was perfect by it being so sticky and rubbery it makes my phone stick to surfaces better and not slide around so much also gives me a better grip when i pick it up. I will probably get the zagg shield put on the back of my evo but will never ever use a zagg shield on the screen of my phone again.
