Does anybody have a suggestion for removing scratches from the Axim's screen. I've read on other message boards that Displex works well but I have never seen it. I also don't want to make the little scratches worse by using the wrong stuff.

Also what do you use to clean your screen. I was using a lens cloth and lens cleaner. Unfortunately the ends of the cloth had some stitching and I put some very small scratches on my screen. Its not noticeable when the back light is turned on. It doesn't really bother me that much since you can really only see it when you look at an angle but I'd like to keep my new Axim in mint condition.

Thanks.

This is why you use screen protectors. I would invest in some ASAP.

I heard a lot of good things about Plexus (http://www.plexusplasticcleaner.com/plexus.html).
To avoid more scratches I suggest using damp, clean micro fiber cloth when cleaning your PDA screen.

Klear Screen is obviously one of the best cleaners for lcd displays, I've used it on my laptop and axim for months now and I wouldn't recommend anything else. Just got Write Sheilds for the Axim, they seem to work great.
People are like thumb tacks, they are useful when they have good heads and are pointed in the right direction.

I forgot to mention where you can buy them. You can buy Write Shields at: Pocket PC Techs, mention pocketPCpassion in the special instructions box for a 10% discount. The Write Shields come with a 3 pack of Klear Screens.
