    I was just at the Stealth Guards website, for a LIMITED TIME, full body protectors for the Droid models and other phones are free! You just pay for shipping and handling. Mine was $2.50 to ship to So. Cali.

    I just received mine for my Droid. When I opened the envelope I only found what I thought was 1 piece of cardboard, but on further inspection found there must have been 2 pieced to begin with, but they were stuck together. I tried to peel them all apart which resulted in a tangled mess of gluey protectors. All was ruined.

    Feels too tacky and has the orange peel texture. No thanks. The screen also does't look nearly as sharp with it on. Been there, moved on.

    I'm still with the Steinheil film, not too many scratches though.

    Yea I don't know why they ship them facing each other. Mine weren't stuck together, though. However I did notice the cut outs were not completely cut through in some places (rather than only having pieces on the sheet, they just stamp the cut out). A few pieces were hard to peel off, and the worst was the holes for the camera and motorola M on the battery door. I gave up trying to separate them without damaging the main piece, and found it was actually rather easy to peel them off once everything was applied and settled.

    I've tried many screen protectors and Stealth Guardz ranks up there with them. Very smooth, minimal orange peel and tackiness, accurate fit. Definitely worth the $2.85, even with the cut out issues.

    I will say that their customer service (as I hold my breath!) seems good. I emailed what happened to them, and they are sending me a replacement set. I hope somebody puts a divider between them! :-)

    I got my new set from Stealth Guards yesterday and applied the front and back on my D1 using one drop of baby shampoo and a bowl of warm water. So far, it looks good and it's on pretty nice. Definitely satisfied for the price (Free plus $2.85 for shipping). I do have to say that you will need patience when applying any type of skin but if you have the patience it should turn out nice.

    I too am fully naked had protectors when I first got my phone but I keep my phone in pocket and for some reason my pocket is a dust magnet and have the dust get under the protectors was a problem for me so just went without and have had no scratches In 6 months the Droid screen is very resilient. Also much easier to clean

    I have been using XO Skins for a while now as well and love it, no orange peel at all and is slick as ice. When you install check out some of their videos they have some install help videos as well as scratch tests.
