For Current iPhone Owners
Do you currently use a screen protector for your iPhone?
If so what kind, and how does it affect performace (ie: glare, "air pockets" etc)

Re: For Current iPhone Owners
I bought a XtremeMac Tuffwrap case for mine and it came with an adhesive screen protector.
Application was easy and I managed to get no air pockets or dirt underneath. Sensitivity seems about the same, however the plastic does offer a bit more grip on your finger which some may find annoying.

I've bought InvisibleShields for just about every shiny thing I own. Nothing better, IMO. Cases are for wussies. You might as well get a fanny pack to carry your gadgets.

Re: For Current iPhone Owners
While it's not for an iPhone, I'd hardly call my iPod case wussy! 
No more cigs, but it makes me feel better having this around at least.

Nah, the screen is plenty scratch resistant. I've had mine for about four months now, dropped once on the road (during a bike ride), and the screen is still spotless.

Similar experience here. Dropped on concrete sidewalk where it dented and scratched near the sleep button. Ended up landing on it's 'face' without a scratch! I've had mine since last November.
