hey all, just saw this thread had actually been replied in somewhat recently. Recent being a relative term for me seeing as how I don't post on these forums much these days
Just thought I'd give a little update for anyone who might be interested. After four months I finally removed my first nushield DS touchscreen protector. It had only a couple very minor, very hard to see hairline scratches on it after much use. I assume that the scratches end up there from dust on the screen getting caught under the stylus as I'm moving it around and 'dragging' into the protector. Because if I clean the screen I can take the stylus and go crazy on it and not leave a mark.
Anyways, I didn't replace it because of the hairline scratches, I replaced it because a large chunk of I-don't-know-what somehow worked it's way in between the screen and the protector. Huge being another relative term, this covered about a 2x2 pixel area of the screen, enough to be really annoying to my picky ass.
So I pulled it off and cleaned the screen and put a new one. One thing you guys might want do do if you buy these, is get something you can clean out the edges of the screen with. As you play your DS and clean the screen, dust and dirt will work it's way down into the edges of the screen where the plastic case of the DS covers... I think that stuff can eventually work it's way back out from under the edges and get stuck under the protector like that.
Anyways, I dunno if that's what you guys were talking about as far as dust getting under there, I have had no problems getting the protector on w/o getting dust trapped between them. I used a strip of paper to get under the edges and scrape some of that built up gunk out of there, so hopefully this time none works it's way out.
Anyways, still love the nushield protectors, look great, feel great, last long, and keep my DS screen from getting scratched. Replacing it once in four months isn't bad IMO, you get three in a pack for like $15... worth it for me.
And no, I dont' work for Nushield
I didn't buy a screen protector for my PSP because I dont' really need it. I'm very careful with it and it's always in the case when I'm not playing it... after nearly a year owning it it has no scratches in it that weren't there the day I pulled it out of the box... yeah... out of the box with scratches. I've owned three psp's, and they've all three come out of the box with a lot of light hairline scratches on the screen. No big deal you can only really see them in sunlight in which case you can't play the damn thing anyways
