ShieldZone screen shield for my Blackberry: First Impressions

Miscellaneous

I just received my ShieldZone screen shield for my Blackberry Pearl phone, and so far I am pretty pleased.  A friend of mine turned me on to ShieldZone after he got one for his mp3 player and had nothing but good things to say about it.

It looks a lot like the usual vinyl stick-on screen protector stuff, but this is supposedly a completely different animal.

From ShieldZone.com :
Made from a unique material originally made for the military to protect the leading edges of helicopter blades, the invisibleSHIELD™ offers consumers protection that other screen protectors can only dream about. With over 600 copyrighted, precision cut designs for a variety of gadgets, ranging from MP3 players, to PDAs, to the newest cell phones, the invisibleSHIELD™ offers optimum protection. If we don’t already have it, we’ll do a custom design for you. And we don't only protect screens; many of our shields are designed to cover as much of the gadget as humanly possible.(Patent-Pending)

The shield itself was fitted very very well to my phone's screen.  It is hard to even tell it is on there now, and I bet nobody would ever notice it if they didn't know to look for it.

The installation is interesting...you get some mystery spray bottle that you coat the shield with, the shield, and a mini-squeegee(sp?) thing.  The spray I think helps clean the surface, allows you to position the shield, and then maybe helps bond the shield to the screen.  Because it is really on there...not sure if it's gonna come off :)

Demo of how strong the material is from their site:
