iPhone Screen Protector, O How I Love Thee...

It's been a little more than a month since I took home my very own baby iPhone 3G, and in that time I've come to appreciate what I now know was one heckuva peripheral purchase: the screen protector. True, the phone itself is a hunka hunka burnin' usability, but the anti-glare protective film deserves some love, so here it is! First off, it gives me peace of mind; I know that any scratches can be banished for $14.95 (a new screen protector) rather than $400 (a new phone out-of-contract). Second, it's not kidding about anti-glare - the diffuse texture keeps shiny lights at bay without obscuring the display underneath. Third, it's very effectively anti-fingerprint - my greasy digits are powerless to leave smudges on this stuff. Finally, and this is perhaps my favorite, it's low-friction; like non-stick cookware, my fingertips glide across the display much more smoothly than possible on bare glass. It's so compelling that every time I use an iPhone without one, I can't help but think, "suuuucker!" And it's legitimate product design, too - finding that sweet spot, the combination of material, texture, thickness, and coating - it's not trivial! Hats off to you, screen protector; you're always welcome on my touchscreen gadgets.
