Just received mine and the rigid screen protector does seem a bit silly.
What can you do that requires a visible sceen with the case closed besides read e-books?
I'm seriously considering removing mine.

And I never use the clip (on any case) because it seems like a recipe for disaster.

I really don't know why more makers don't go for a top-hinged design.
As-is the top has almost no protection and since the hinged cover is what locks the device in place, it is conceivable (however unlikely) that the device could slip out of the case whenever the cover was open.

Button access is very good except for the power button which is quite a bit harder to reach.

On the plus side it does fit my pocket better than the HP leather sleeve and the vents on the back allow better sound transfer.

Overall I'm happy with it but a top-hinged design and a flexible membrane-type screen protector would make it much more useful to me.

Inside of a dog it's too dark to read.
