So, I have come across 3 diffrent screen protectors on amazon. Does anyone recomend one of them or maybe another one I havent listed?

http://www.amazon.com/invisibleSHIELD-LG-Versa-VX9600-Screen/dp/B001RIECQM/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=miscellaneous&qid=1239146763&sr=8-2

http://www.amazon.com/LG-Vx9600-Premium-Quality-Protector/dp/B0023UYI0I/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&s=wireless&qid=1239146763&sr=8-3

http://www.amazon.com/Quality-Mirror-Screen-Protector-VX9600/dp/B0025VMM5S/ref=sr_1_7?ie=UTF8&s=wireless&qid=1239146763&sr=8-7

Im leaning towards the last one. Any suggestions? Thanks.

I have heard that the invisibleshield for the versa isn't good. I have read that it leaves bubbles and marks all over the phone, and is very hard to install. I also read that it makes texting a lot harder. Anyone know if this stuff is true? Im getting the versa soon and I want to order the screen protector in advanced so i can put it on as soon as i get the phone. The main reason im looking at the invisible shield is because I wont have to worry about putting a case on it, but if it's gonna be a real pain for texting and such then I dont want to buy it and be disapointed having wasted 20+ dollars. Anyone have suggestions? Maybe I should get a silicon case, and one of the other screen protectors?

IMO, I like the concept of the Invisishield. I was sold on reccommendations, their website, the kiosks in the mall, etc. and I figured that I couldn't go wrong with something that costs considerably more than the competition. Here's my problem with the product: As far as a touchscreen protector, I'm really disappointed. I bought 2, one for my versa & one for my girlfriends. After attempting, reattempting, reattempting and reattempting to put it on mine, I finally got it (keep in mine that I've installed vinyl several times in the past and never had so much trouble). Other than the difficulty of application, the product sucked for 2 main reasons:
1. There is a distorted/plastic looking quality that I just couldn't get over. It was almost as if it translucent instead of transparent.
2. For a touchscreen, it provides WAY too much traction. Imagine going shirtless down a slip-n-slide with no water . . . that’s kinna what my thumb felt like.
Don't get me wrong, I can definitely see its advantages for different applications (like the back side of the phone, a laptop, remote control, etc.) but I returned the unopened one and will never buy another Invisishield for a screen, especially a touchscreen.
So I'm out ~$30, but the bright side is that for $12 I bought a 5 pack of universal 5" GPS anti-glare screen protectors from Target and I used my POS Invisishield as a template to cut it down to fit. . . . Thanks for my $30 template Invisishield!

Thanks, you helped me decided. Im NOT getting the invisibleshield. I think im going to stick to getting a pack of cheaper ones and maybe a silicon case. Other than i'll just have to be extra carefull. Thanks again.  Grin

I get my fingerprints on it a lot, but they gave me a small microfiber cloth to get rid of them.

Got the Invisible shield, installed by the a friend who works at the store. Took him a few tries, but got it on and it looks fine. I do get the slip n slide reference, but I am sure that will lessen the more I use it, it is not really a problem. BTW, love the phone so far!

i'm thinking about getting the invisible shield just to try, but i've heared so much more bad than good about it.

I've only had it since this afternoon, but no complaints so far!

I know, short sample time.... Really digging the phone, though. BIG step from my last one.

So what’s the verdict on the best screen protector?
I’ve tried the Invisishield and it’s not for me, so let’s take it out of the equation all together.   
What else would you recommend?
I’m looking for:
1.   Not a universal/cut-to-fit
2.   Best screen coverage (edge to edge)
3.   Best anti-glare
4.   Most scratch resistant
5.   Least interference with touchscreen
