Plastic strips
 

Do these plastic strips on either side of the keyboard (where it slides) serve a purpose, or are they just for shipping purposes?

one of mine just fell off, and I'm thinking they were just for shipping purposes...

I was looking at my phone today wondering the exact same thing.. lol

On my first Mogul I didn't even know they were there for 6 weeks. Only found out when it was swapped out for a new one at the store.

I took mine of the first day I got my Mogul

same here i took mine off the first day they are just for shipping purposes

hahha funny. I thought the plastic strips were actualy the plastic buffers themselves. I thbought it was a nice bling bling look to it until I noticed a air bubble. Then I took them off. Then I regret it because it wasn't shinny and blingy. :(

Theres a note in the user manual someplace that says to remove them.

i still have mine on....been a week...should i take em off?

Leave them on ........ they look nice and shiny

I left mine on. Doesn't seem to hurt.

The manual says they can be removed. There is no harm in leaving them there either. I left mine on for about a month, then the left side started peeling up. At that point I just decided to peel them both off.

Manual? What is that?

hehehe....I was wondering about this myself. I love PPCGEEKS!

Oh...I just pulled mine off and the keyboard snapping is MUCH more forcefull. NOICE!
