    Capt, I would have to disagree, while my ipod does not have a screen protector. I got my iPad and in less thana week, it had 3 light scratches on the surface, never dropped or handle rough, just normal use. I have no idea how they got there but they look like they came from a swipe gesture.

    Anywho, I got a Zagg shield (front only) and it actually looks alot better than other Zagg shields I have had on phones.

    And like many others, I let my children use it at night so having a shield just gives me less stress....

    Avoid invisishield by Zagg. Simply go to Amazon's site and look at the reviews.

    There are a TON of tiny microbubbles on my screen, and the instructions say they will eventually "move" out, but I'm nervous... is this indeed accurate?
    There should be a couple, not a ton. You really need to wet the shield really really well, then apply it in a top to bottom or bottom to top fashion, working out major bubbles along the way. That's what I've found to be the most "bubble free". Mine has no bubbles at ALL, did have some strange streaks on the rear part but those disappeared in under 36 hours.

    Large glass screen+living= screen protector. Unless the thing doesn't leave your home. That would be weird, though and I would have to ask you why you got one in the first place

    I have the Zagg on all my devices, love it.

    Those reviews on amazon are a bit biased IMHO. I could easily say, "hey, stay away from that pizza, I don't like the way it tastes" and it would be the same thing. Try it out and see what YOU like.

    Screen protectors are probably for Captain Sensible users. I have a screen protector on my iPhone but not on my iPad.

    I applied zagg but the bubbles are still there after 5 days. The solution fluid is not enough. What shall I do? Should I remove and redo the entire process again? Need help?

    I don't know if you can take it off and then reuse it. Anyone have experience with that?

    taking off the invisible shield will stretch it unless you are very very careful. i have tried this with an iphone and failed so bought another. its all about the care and time you take to apply the shield. must admit i'm a huge fan and have put the shield on all my ipod, iphones and now the ipad and i would not own any others. yes the feel of the screen is not the same but you get used to it. doens't make it any less sensitive, well not in my experience and to keep your ipad looking great why would you not want one ?

    If you need to reapply, try contacting Zagg. Tell them you have bubbles everywhere. They may send you a new one. Just be sure to keep your old one, you will have to send it back if they warranty it.

    I dont know if their warranty covers bubbles in your application, but it might. When you apply the film, make sure its plenty wet and try to squeegee them out while everything is wet. Air bubbles will not all go away, the water bubbles you can see when you hold it up to the light eventually will.
