what's everyone plan on using for a screen protector (if any)? on my ipods i've used the invisible shield which has always been excellent. not sure if i'd like it on the iphone as the back is a matte finish and the screen may look worse w/ the 'orange peel'. i have used Expert Shields in the past on my cell phones and they're amazing. problem is they don't seem to have any for the iphone yet.
saw a few on ebay, but am always weary of no-name products. plus some of them didn't seem to have a complete hole cut out at the bottom for the 'home' key. it was more like an upsidedown 'U'.

the apple store is out of stock, but they sell some for the iphone. Its called something like crystal film?? and they carry the same brand for all their ipods plus laptops. Yeah.. i just wish they had some in stock.

i just ordered the iPhone Crystal Screen Armor from Decal Girl (http://www.decalgirl.com/browse.cfm/2,249.htm). They have them in gloss & matte for $4.50. The iPhone Ultra Screen Armor (gloss or matte) is $9.99. I didn't see any notice of a wait time before orders to be shipped. I just received my email confirming my order.

The Power Support Crystal Film available in the Apple Stores is really pretty good. They were really easy to apply, no liquid or adhesive needed, and the fit is pretty good. It was as good as the engadget review (http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/30/hands-on-with-crystal-film-for-the-iphone/) says. The best part is, if you can find them in the store, you don't have to wait for shipping.

I just bought and installes fhe crystal one form the Apple Store.

Its good but not perfect as you are bound to get a piece of lint between it and the screen.

Also I really think the glass screen doesnt need any protector on there. And the glass feels a lot better.

I bought this protective film, and one of the genuises put it on for me. You'd never know it was there.
