I have "Ghost Armor" on mines. I love it. Scratched resistant and lifetime warranty. Don't get any better. Oh by the way full body armor.

Did you install it yourself? I am a little hesitant because I have seen some of those "skins" in iPhones and they looked like crap. Plus I am a little weary of gettin the phone wet with the application solution which I assume is just distilled water.

Can you get matte finish screen covers that are pre cut for the Droid? I got the 3 pack from Verizon and they are very clear/glossy and show many fingerprints.

I also got the Verizon ones, they are a little tricky, i got it on my second try, i did get some dust inside, which caused bubbles on some parts, but wasnt bad at all, the other bubbles seemed to flatten out over time, they worked great.

The Verizon ones don't fit very well IMO. if you don't line it up perfectly the edges of the protector will hang over either the sides or the corner and cause that part of the protector to not sit correctly. It's very frustrating...I've already used two of mine trying to get it on right and I am afraid that if I tried again then I would get it even worse and then I'll be out of tries. What to do, what to do...haha

I'm with you on the ill fittin' Verizon screen protectors Noid Hoid. I had to slightly trim one edge to get it to lay flat. Works fine but doesn't seem right.

My Verizon screen protector fits pretty good but the glossy finish shows fingerprints too much. I wish they made custom fit matte finish.

just installed my zagg protector and i like it so far, it also has a little different texture than the glass that my finger rolls over a little easier then the glass surface

Ive got to agree with everyone who says negative things about the VZ screen protectors. They aren't TERRIBLE, they do what they are supposed to , but they aren't pretty.

The edges dont really fasten around the proximity sensor and light, and air bubbles are tough to get out. They seem hit or miss- sometimes they look great and other times, they look damn ugly.

Its better than nothing, but I would recommend a zagg invisishield. Those things are indestructible.

A weird note here by the way: When purchasing my Droid, I was told that ANY scratch on the screen completely voids the warranty. I dont know if I completely believe that but It worried me enough to grab a couple of the VZ screen protectors.
