I asked the same question a while back and almost everyone raved about the
WriteSHIELDs from PPC-Techs (www.ppctechs.com). I just received a 2-pack of
them just the other day. I haven't installed one yet because I only have a
week on my latest Belkin/Fellows type. I'm waiting until it needs to be
replaced before I put on the new WS. I have to say that I don't know what
all the buzz is about. They cost $30 for the pair and don't appear
drastically different than the Belkins. But they make some good stuff and
do good work so I'm not making any premature judgments. I also got the
replacement grips for the 2215, lighted stylus, and Lil' Sync at the same
time. They're all incredibly terrific products so I'm thinking my first
impression of the WriteSHIELD is wrong.
Cheers,
Russ

I got these Belkins to use on my Toshiba e805 and with the protector, e805
no longer recognize any handwritting. After throwing the protector away, I
now can write again on the e805 screen.
Anyone else has the same problem?
best,

I'm using the Fellowes "WriteRight" and I must say that once you get a good
fit,
it is beautiful. Unfortunately I wasted about 5 out of the 12 becase I,
uhhh...didn't
read the directions. but handwritting is very nice. I can see that with
games you'd
want to be careful not to "dig in" with your strokes.

I have been using clear vinyl since my days with my good old PalmPilot. I
spent only a few dollars and still have plenty left enough for my children,
my grandchildren , and my grand grand children... to come. I really don't
understand what the buzz is about these expensive screen protectors. Did I
miss anything?

Vinyl ages, gets harder and clouds up in time.

I had similar thoughts (using clear vinyl on my Jornada 548)
until I used some of these expensive screen protectors. Now I
can't go back to clear vinyl. The feel of the screen is way
better, the durability is simply great, and the protection is
not sliding on the screen, like the clear vinyl was. So my
advice would be: if you're happy with what you're using, avoid
trying the expensive screen protectors. They'll ruin your screen
protection budget.
