I would would love to share something with everyone who own a 9900 Bold. I had searched for a while (.06 seconds) to find a privacy screen for my 9930 that works with the touchscreen. I am proud to announce that, although a shame it is not sold in stores, 3M does sell -- and i have purchased an installed -- a privacy (matte) screen protector THAT DOES work with our 9930 touchscreens.
Sorry if there are reviews and people have ordered this and do not like it, but it has satisfied my need for a screen protector with privacy for my 9930.
I can confirm it does apply extremely easily, provides anti-glare, and privacy -- as well as I stated, it does not hinder the touch screen experience! It is a tiny bit grainy, a tiny bit, but there are no lines (as if you've installed a privacy screen in the wrong direction). It also covers the screen and the piece where BlackBerry is written above (y)
It does sound great, and I know 3M provides quality. But Id have to echo others opinion on the price- not for me. But thanks for sharing, it will be good for future reference to those who are looking in the future.
Hey JDuf, keep us posted with how it works. I really want to get some privacy protectors too.
I got them in the mail today, and just put one on. It does exactly what its supposed to do. I didn't have to adjust my screen brightness at all (I keep it on 10). I'll see tomorrow when I get it in sunlight. The touchscreen works perfect.
I would reccomend this product. Like I said, I bought 3 for a total of $8, shipping included.
*it is great in direct sunlight. I didn't have to adjust my brightness settings. If you payed $16 for one of these you got ripped off.
Pardon me for going a little off topic here, well not really...
I picked up a case mate 4 way privacy protector for the iphone, with the intention of cutting it down for my 9900, they were 5 bucks on ebay w/ free shipping. My thought was that if it works on the iphone, it should definitely work on my 9900 because they were both touch screen. Well I was wrong...lol. There is no responsiveness at all on my 9900. I was just wondering if anybody knew why it would work on iphone but not the 9900? They are both touchscreens..... Thanks for any info so I can say..."Oh OK"...LOL
