MANY Scratches on screen protector
My stylus is just fine, smooth and not pointed at the tip of it. When I drag the stylus anywhere on the screen protector, it creates a scratch. I have only had this screen protector on for a couple of days and it is scratched more than ever. What is the deal? Is this how it is for everyone, or is something odd happening?

I think I voted in this thread already. Yes, you should shave. Believe it or not, I have the Dell and like them. I had the Screenguardz before and liked them but noticed that they would grab my stylus and make it difficult to write. The dell allows smooth writing.

Yep, Love my X51V but I also ordered the Dell screen protectors when I bought my AXIM. Horrible, truly horrible. I tried to use a couple of them then threw the rest away. Replaced them with the ones from ScreenGuardz. First one has been on over a month now and not one single scratch. A few bubbles the first few days but they went away. And they're cheap ...... But boy , those Dell protectors sure are horrible.

Yep, the brand is the problem. My Dell ones were scratched beyond use in about a week's time. Now I use WriteShield and they last about a year each. Wonderful!

Yeah. Dell doesn't have the best of reputation in the screen protector. If I may make a suggestion, I would highly recomend going with either the Boxwave Cleartouch Crystal or the one I am using currently. I am using the invisible shield. They're only $11.95 and they have free lifetime replacements should you ever actually need one. I have one for my Ipod Nano as well. They're great.
