On the left side of the shield, there is a tiny bit that doesn't stick to my BB? Any ideas?

I've still got the orange peel with my BSE, but am so sick of messing with and worrying about screen protectors, so I'm just going to keep this one on and get over it |

How's the BSE doing after a week? I'm thinking of ordering a set or two. | My BSE is holding strong. No complaints whatsoever (granted, it is in a silicon case and I'll be transfering it to the Seidio Innocase II as soon as it arrives, but the screen is holding fast at least!

The only parts for me that were trickier than normal to get sticking were edges/corners, which I cupped in my hand with pressure and held it there for 30 seconds to a minute, then took the hair dryer to it for the same amount of time (to set the adhesive a bit quicker). That did the trick. Can you post a pic?

I did all the sticking last night.

Didn't read through all 9 pages but is it just me or does it look like there is an orange peel effect from the pictures?

Not sure I get complaints about orange peel. Yes its there on mine but only noticeable when LCD is darkened.

Posted from my CrackBerry at wapforums.crackberry.com | Same here. Overall im very pleased with my skin. The toughest part for me honestly was the camera part. It may not sound tricky but it took me forever to set it just right, it would have been alot easier if the top and the camera part were two pieces like Zaggs. Thats probably my only complaint. From what ive seen, this skin covers more of the phone then the Zaggs did.
Also, I recommend using a silicon case over it as well, ive noticed the edges attract lint very easily and if youre like me, thatll drive you crazy.

There is some orange peel with the BSE, but like Reggie says it is not really all that noticable when using the device.

I have the vertical line issue with my BSE that I installed last night. It's most noticeable on white screens. Any hope that this will go away by itself?

The vertical lines won't go away. I installed my BSE full body skin one week ago and the screen never cleared up. I had the orange peel on the entire phone and had the vertical lines on the screen. After a week the lines didn't go away and the screen looked bad with the lines, orange peel, and the lack of clarity. I just ended up ripping off my BSE screen protector and I'm going to replace it with a screen protector from Clarivue. Hopefully this will do the trick. I'm happy with the skin overall, but the screen protector needs work. It really does need to be crystal clear so we can take advantage of the 8900's high res screen.

i installed my bse screen protector yesterday.. i have both bse and zagg and decided to go with bse since all of the complaints, plus i was one of the first to order one (so assume it has the wrong sizing)....
took me like 2 minutes to get it one and am very happy with it...yes it has "orange peel" but that im sure is common with this material, and it only can be seen when the screen is in sleep and you hold it in a certain way... imho $8.00 well spent..and i have my zagg going back!
