question about screen covers
I'd like to know if there are any places I can buy from online that sells something or anything that could be used as a screen protector. This is for my ebookwise reader, and ideally it should be able to cling on to the surface. Also I would like the item to be "textured" such that it can break up reflected light hitting the surface and yet not heavily textured as to obscure the screen. Any recommendations would be nice.

umm
I don't know of any, though someone else might.
I don't find not having a screen protector to be that big of a deal for me. I just make sure I clean the screen ever so often. I know that there are a few cases out there for the eb1150, though I can't remember off the top of my head where they are. Amy |

My ETI-2 died a couple of months ago, and while I tried to hold out a while (mostly hoping for a Pixel Qi unit, but it looks unlikely to come out for many months yet, if someone even manages this year), I finally gave in and bought anothe eBookwise, and one thing I noticed was that the new one comes with a built-in screen protector, which my Dec2005 unit lacked. (Which is interesting, as I didn't think these were being made anymore, that it was just old Gemstar stock being sold.)

This might or might not be what you are looking for. Haven't tried it myself but found it while searching for a screen protector.

Strong Engineering still sells screen protectors. They have gotten really expensive though. They are sold in a pack 12 for $27.56. The pic they have up is the original Rocket Ebook. the size is 5.5" x 3.5". IIRC I bought these a few years ago and they fit. Measure to be sure. Still the price may make this a non-option. Here's the link:

I've let my four year old "draw" on mine, usually use my thumb to clean the screen and have not scratched it in 3+ years.
I have put a piece of card stock (think cereal box) in the sleeve to protect the screen while I haul it around in my lunch box. Michael |
