Personally, I can't stand screen protectors. They are rubbery and cheap feeling. And I've tried even the top quality ones. Personally, for a touch screen experience, real glass is the only way to go. My Droid is beat to hell, it seriously looks like I intentionally tried to damage it by throwing it on the concrete, but the glass is still in perfect condition. I'm not saying it can't be scratched, just saying that you have to be very dumb or intentionally try to scratch it. As far as fingerprints go I've found most screen protectors to be WORSE in that department, and more difficult to clean. One wipe on my shirt and my glass is clean as new. A little finger grease on the screen makes it silky smooth, though, so I usually leave a little on dancedroid. That being said, I never try to tell anyone not to get a screen protector. If you don't mind the feel and aesthetics, and prefer the peace of mind, go for it. But you really don't need one, if you'd rather save the money.
