Has anyone gotten an Anti -Glare Film for their new MacBook Pro 15" ?

And is it any good ?

I want to get one as i hate the glossy screen for photo retouching etc......!
 
ViewGuard makes one also. See www.buyviewguard.com. The MacBook versions start at $14.99.

Looks like the PowerSupport one uses static cling which does seem appealing.

It doesn't look like the PowerSupport one has any cut out for the iSight though from what I could see.

If you look at the anti glare filters for the iphone for example there is a noticable clarity change in the readability of the text. So it's a non starter for me if any of these products result in any "grainy" appearance.
 
Photodon.com has selection of screens also.
And they have a notch for iSight (which I don't like, and would probably ask them to ship it solid - custom cut only 2.50$ extra - will cut a round hole myself)

The only review of them I've found is on gottabemobile.com/2008/... photodon-anti-glare/.

I'm yet to upgrade to Unibody MB, and never tried any screens before, so would be interested to hear your opinions.
