The material is the same as the shaggymac...yes possibly thicker...but it will produce the same outcome of stopping build up of oils on the screen. Its not like your gonna buy the cloth and then no longer clean the keyboard etc. It serves the purpose of keeping the screen clean. You can't say that it isn't usefull.
not "possibly thicker" it
IS thicker, based on the research i've linked to above.
the increased thickness could come at the expense of not being able to close properly. but, we won't find out until it comes in the mail, right?
It does not serve the purpose of keeping the
screen clean. It serves the purpose of keeping the
GLASS clean.
My main point of contention is that because the screen is
behind the glass, you don't need anything special to clean it because
all you're doing is cleaning glass, not the actual screen.
and you certainly don't need any special material to clean the plastic keys on the keyboard. while i recognize that having an extra layer on a keyboard is unnatural/bothersome, it prevents the problem of oil on the keys in the first place. the moshi clearguard is supposed to be ultra thin 0.1mm, instead of silicon keyboard protectors (supposedly 0.5mm).
Others have already remarked about it (the moshi) in a separate thread, so i won't clog up the forums with a new thread, but if i notice something different that I haven't already read before, i'll definitely post it when i get it.
