I have an HP 435X. I need a new screen protector:

I currently am using the G2 from http://www.pdascreenprotectors.com/. It gets smudged easily, attacts dust more than a static duster, and was, itself, scratched badly from general use within a few days. Most importantly, I HATED the installation procedure!

I want a screen protector:

...that is durable and will not get scratched.
...that reduces glare.
...that enchances the feel of the stylus on the screen...maybe more like writing on paper.
...that is not a pain to install as was the G2.

Any suggestions?

Where can I find a recent comprehensive review/comparison of screen protectors?

Thanks,
CB

I like the ones from Pocket PC Techs - WriteShield (http://www.pocketpctechs.com/ws.asp).

Mine have shown some wear over the weeks of use, but they have an easier application procedure and at least one of their types has glare protection.

Proporta (http://www.proporta.co.uk) do good reliable screen protectors. I've had mine for nearly a year now with no problems.

I have a Proprota one for my T5/T3/NX80 that I use, and it's fine.

I usually use the ones from Brando. I have a super duper clear one (whatever it's called) for my iPAQ that is pretty sharp (although no glare reducing properties on this model, but there are glare reducing ones available). While I think just about all screen protectors are a pain to put on (especially when trying to keep dust from the sticky side while applying), the Brando's usually last me about a year, so I don't have to change them hardly at all. And after 4-5 months of use, still no scratches on this protector.

(I usually run a hot shower to reduce dust in the bathroom and apply the screen protector that way. Just have to watch to make sure not too much condensation collects on the device or protector. With two dogs running around the house, dust and hair is particularly difficult to avoid.)
