While both brands of screen protector were good, smooth, clear, etc.... they are still nothing compared to the appearance/feel of a protectorless screen.
Do I get scratches? Yes, but only very fine ones. With the PPC turned on, I can't see them at all. They are only visible when viewing them at an angle with the screen turned off.
I'm sure that after a couple years of use, that they might become more visible. But I don't keep a PDA for more than 1 or 2 years anyhow, before getting a newer model.
If you're looking to get YEARS of use out of your screen, it's probably best to get a protector. Otherwise, the minute scratches probably won't bother you unless you are very picky about your screen being perfect.

Great post. I agree with you 100%. I'm just one of the picky ones. Plus I keep my PPC's about a year, then sell them on eBay before getting my next one. And PPC's are a little easier to sell when you can say your screen is perfect.
