However you must take care, that no grains of sand are between tip of stylus and screen, since sand is abrasive and can cause scratches.
(Hi Booxtor) Which brings to mind something I mentioned elsewhere (it was about whether it is the less layers on top of the screen, e.g. the frontlight, that make the MaxCarta so "pixelated" in comparison to other Onyx products): instructions/possibility to add an extra film on top?
It is not overcare: I ruined an eink screen in a spot of one reader and dented another. And of course, while normally treating them with religious devotion.
As I mentioned via E-Mail (BTW did you receive it?) I contacted a leading firm producing films for mobile devices, but they replied that they do not trust placing their products not directly on glass.
