I'd say Boxwave cleartouch. The only issue I'm having with them is that since the thing is a bit rigid, even tho the corners are sealed pretty well, the bottom 2 corners on the screen cover and the top 2 corners on the button cover are a bit sharp and wanna tend to want to snag cloth. This, in turn tends to lift the corners a bit if you are not very careful.

I kinda wish they rounded them off just a tiny bit so they won't snag.

Re: InvisibleShield vs Bodyguardz

Bodyguardz works for me. It took about a day for the last of the fog to disappear. And I had to lift corners and reposition a couple of times because I didn't get it right on the first few tries. But the glue kept holding and the product works great.

Compared to the crappy screen guard that came with the TP, it works REALLY great. Touch sensitivity is about 25% better. It feels soft and yielding compared to the stiff feel of the factory job and the Boxwave guard I had on my apache.

I only covered the front and back. All the chrome covers and tiny strips seemed like overkill. No problem with the flap tabs. If they come loose, I figure I can just snip them and round them off.

+1 to boxwave, I had invisibleshield and I took it off, then I ordered a replacement just not get screwed, got the boxwave clear crystal and Im happy with it, the only down part about it is that its not finger print friendly, but overall is a great screen protector, easy to install and you cant even tell that you have it on.

Does it warrant it no.......do i wanna look at a scratch for the next year no....... does it matter cuz i got a buddy that will swap it no...... anyways if someone did get my phone as a refurb then you know its good all they did was replace the screen!

Re: InvisibleShield vs Bodyguardz

I would say Invisible shield... this is the first time I have got a screen or full body protection for any of my PDA... till now I did not use any... and Invisibleshield has been the first one and I am pretty happy with the results... Cannot really complain about them. Covers the whole body... touch sensitivity is still the same... plus scratch proof... some guy had dropped his from as high as the waist level like more then 3 times and not even a scratch on the phone...

Can't be more happier... but always have an open mind to try anything with good reviews...

Re: InvisibleShield vs Bodyguardz

I just put on an invisible shield screen protector and I already hate it there is 5 air bubbles in it and they don t look like they are going to come out. It came with one for the tmobile G1 so now I got to find someone that has one and see if I can re-coupe some of my money. just my opinon but i think they are garbage.

Re: InvisibleShield vs Bodyguardz

Well ive had my bodyguardz for a while now. And i was very happy with it. Ive dropped it a few times and it was very well-protected. The screen never lost any type of sensitivity or anything. No orange-peel, and the screen wasnt too "grippy" when sliding your finger across. My only advice is that make sure all of the ends/corners are laid completely down cuz if not it wit catch on to sumthing (pocket/case/holster/etc) if its not. Im using my second set now but only becuz i had to get a replacement. Overall though Im happy. As far as the air bubbles go, i kno with my body guardz most of the air bubbles were gone after about 24 hrs. All that wuz left were a few small pockets with sum moisture up under them but even they were mostly gon after about 48 hrs. There wuz one stubborn one around the D-pad that didnt dissapear till after the third day, n after that CRYSTAL CLEAR. Hoped this helped anybody still trying to decide

Re: InvisibleShield vs Bodyguardz

i tried a new one due to misships from BodyGuardz, called Gadget Guard, found at kiosk at mall.
Love it, fits perfect, it does not have orange peel effect, harder and cannot tell it is on.
No change in touch, dragging, etc. Also put one on hubby's BB and fit well, easy to install.
I had Invisible Shield on Instinct and would have removed if I had kept the phone, too grippy, rubbery.
This is small start up company and I recommend looking at them, selling at some phone kiosks in malls, can order online.

InvisibleShield + Seidio Clip Holster Compatibility

I have my Touch Pro fully skinned in an invisibleshield. I'm interested in getting one of these seidio clip holsters for my TP as well. I've heard rumors that by putting the full-body invisibleshield on my TP, that it is no longer compatible with the Seidio clip holster. Can anyone verify this? Any experience out there? I'm wondering if I get the holster designed for the TP + their innocase (the "Seidio Innocase Holster"), that it may work with my TP. Please someone let me know!
