Recently I sent my Phone Edition in to Leonard and Mack at Pocket PC Techs for their fabulous 128MB upgrade service. As a special touch, they included a WriteSHIELD Screen Protector as a lagniappe.

When I got my phone edition back, I could tell there was a slight difference from the Brando Protector that I had had installed previously. While the two protectors are very similar in principle, the main difference was a slightly different "feel." To me, the WriteSHIELD has smoother writing texture to it, but it is still reminiscent of writing on paper. Just like the Brando, it is anti-glare, slightly textured, uses a lighter adhesive than traditional screen protectors, and should last for months and months with normal usage (barring one of your kids gouging the screen with your stylus).

Of course, the main difference was that it was obvious they had taken the time to install the protector in a dust-free environment. There were absolutely no specs or bubbles of any kind under this protector - something I am never quite able to accomplish myself! :0)

The WriteSHIELD protectors are available in a couple of different configurations: you can get the Standard Kit, which includes three "screen protectors and three KlearScreen Wet/Dry single packs and fully illustrated directions," or you can get the Deluxe kit which also includes a "two ounce pump bottle of the KlearScreen cleaning solution and two KlearKloths to maintain the WriteSHIELD's surface."

If you send your PDA in for an upgrade, it is definitely worthwhile to have them add the WriteSHIELD screen protector to the service. IF you aren't sending your PDA in, then you can still enjoy their smooth writing service while you are assured of a protected and pristine PDA screen.

Price: $29.00 for the Standard Kit
$39.00 for Deluxe Kit

Pros:
Excellent, long lasting protection for your screen
Good value (3 could quite possibly last you almost 2 years)
Non-Glare
Easy to remove - non "tacky" adhesive
Smooth writing surface

Cons:
None
