Okay, the ARMR200 is definite out. Don't bother ordering it because it won't help. It doesn't make it better or worse, but instead seems to have the same sort of coating that the PRS-600/900 already have.

So it is definitely either the gloss or light-control filter that the guy found that seemed to work.

EDIT: Although I will say the ARMR200 works great on back-lit devices. I slapped my test sample onto my laptop with a glossy screen and the reflections were pretty much gone on the spot. Looks like it depends on a backlight and is mostly there to help the backlight overcome the reflection.
