I had some of this stuff lying around which I bought in sheets for a convertible laptop I bought a year ago.

On the laptop, which I used with a stylus, the stuff was awful. It prevented scratches alright, but it is a lightly "tacky" rubbery surface that was absolutely awful on the stylus.

I took it off almost immediately, but decided to give it a shot on the Sony Reader.

Verdict is almost the same-- yeah, it'll protect the screen, but the glare is something awful. And because it's not a flat plastic but rather a somewhat mottled rubber, it is very distracting.

If you're in an environment where you think the screen is likely to get scratched, then I could see some benefit. But otherwise, it doesn't make sense to degrade the screen in this way for incidental damage

Just my two cents.
