   There’s not much to say about this… It’s a thin, plastic screen protector. Once you put it on, the only time you’ll notice it is looking at the Home button on the bottom, because there’s a notch there for it.

   Important things to remember:

   1. CLEAN THE SCREEN – Wipe down the screen with the included cloth, and make 100% certain that there are NO dust particles on it before you begin applying the protector. Dust particles will create annoying air bubbles, and trying to remove them from the adhesive side of the protector basically ruins it. Make sure your general area is also free of dust before you remove the plastic from the adhesive side of the protector.

   2. SAVE THE CARD – There’s a small cardboard card in the box. This is meant to help even out and smooth out the protector once it’s on the device. Don’t throw it out – save it! If you do mistakenly throw it away, though, you could probably safely use something like a credit card.

   3. DON’T REMOVE THE PLASTIC FILM ON THE FRONT UNTIL YOU’RE DONE SMOOTHING IT – There’s a plastic film on the front of the screen protector, and it’s there for a reason. Once you have used the card to eliminate non-dust-related air bubbles, you’ll see why. The plastic film is usually pretty well scratched. Better the film than your new screen protector.

   That’s all there is to it – Follow the instructions and keep the above things in mind, and you’ve got a protected screen.

   This is a screen protector which sticks directly onto the front of the iPod Touch, with a small gap at the bottom so as to not cover the button located there. It’s easy to apply, but make sure you carefully remove all dust particles from the screen before attaching the protector since those particles can cause air bubbles to form. There is an included cloth for cleaning the screen.

   The only reason for giving this product four instead of five stars is the price. It is a bit pricey, but if you feel that you want to protect your screen from scratches and oily fingerprints, then you’ll need to get a protector like this.

   It’s a little tricky at first to get the screen protector smoothly on the iPod, but once you get it on you can hardly notice it there. It’s also easy to clean as well to get all of those annoying fingerprints and dust particles off the screen with a damp cloth.

   This is a great screen protector that uses no glue to attach to the iPod Touch. The overly is a vinyl cling type of material. As long as you give yourself a little time and follow the directions, you should end up with great results. (Lock yourself in the bathroom away from pets and kids.)

   The clear plastic comes with a piece of clear film on both sides. Each side has a little piece of tape to make it easier to remove the film. Basically wipe off the Touch screen with the included cloth. Pull the film away from the edge of the bottom side of the overly and line this up on the Touch’s screen. Slowly pull the film off as you are applying the overly to the screen. Once the overly is on the screen, you simply pull the film off the top of the overly and you are done!

   I had my overlay installed in less than 5 minutes with beautiful results. I will definitely be purchasing these again should we need them. As a diehard Palm PDA user (as was my husband), this screen overlay was by far the easiest I’ve ever had to put on.

   Hello,

   These seemed like a great idea. It was very difficult to get one on without a bubble or smudge, but I was able to pull it off by the second film thingy. Then I thought it was great. You could not even see it. Then the next day I noticed that the film was scratched. The Ipod screen itself (presumably glass) had never scratched even after the same type of usage (sitting in my shirt pocket with my cell phone). If they are going to scratch this easily, I am better off without them…

   Then I tried to get the third one on and failed due to a small hair caught underneath. In removing the hair I made a major smudge and had to toss it. So this cost me about $12 and a half hour of my time. I do not think it was worth it.
