Don't waste your money and order the screen protectors from Dell the suck. They just sort of snap onto the screen and it effects the clarity and makes it harder to use. I am going to adapt some of my iPAQ Fellowes screen protectors until they come out with some.

Just another FYI

It was real nice of Dell to include instructions with the screen protectors! The first thing you have to do is remove the protective cover. Thats why it is so hard to see! Second, to keep them from slipping install them with the corners facing up. The protective cover is on the side that faces the screen. It doesn't look like it is there but it is. Use your finger nail to get it off. Once you do all of this they should work just fine.

I have had the protectors installed correctly and still don't like them. There is no adhesive to hold it still and it does not have the same visual quality that the Fellowes protectors do. I had the protective cover removed from the unit.

I bought one for Toshiba which is a bit longer. I cut out about 1-2 mm and it works pretty good.

Strange.....I don't know how the Dell screen protectors could get any more clear. I have not had any trouble with them moving around either. I guess to each his own....Now as far as the D-pad goes.....thats another story....

Hi Scot,

I also ordered an Axim but without the screen protector. Which is a better alternative and any idea what is the price?

I just sent away for Writeshields from pocketpctechs.com A bit expensive at $29.99 for 3 but they are supposed to be the best and last for 6 months or so.
