Here is a pic of how bad the alignment is on my SGP:
Although the home is not aligned.. are the sides aligned? I came across that problem when doing my iphone4 and just had to move it towards the right to fit a bit.
Got a tip for us?

Just got my SGP ultra crystal today and didn't realize these were hard coated films. How do the feel of these compare to the soft coated ones? Does anyone have experience with both and have any feedback? I like my screen protectors to be as close to the feel of the real screen. This is why I prefer Power Support but since they are not available yet, I got this one.
I placed an order for the SGP Ultra Crystal (glossy) and they sent me the wrong one, the matte version! 
I decided to put it on anyways, didn't feel like dealing with all of their BS.
I thought it was pretty easy to put on, no problems at all, used scotch tape to pick up the dust specks.
The finish on the matte really sucks! Everything looks slightly cloudy and blurry on the iPad screen. It's also a fingerprint magnet, can see every little smudge. I hate it, lol.
I just emailed SGP and told them they screwed up my order and asked them to send me the UC version, worth a try at least.
But I guess this will do until Power Support gets their films out - have used them on every iPhone I've had and they are always the best!
Update: Wow, SGP actually responded to my email within a few hours... they asked me to verify that I received the wrong item by sending them some photos. Luckily I still had the packaging... will be interesting to see how this goes.

My SGP ultra clear is cut perfectly as far as I can tell. Camera and home button holes are perfectly aligned, and it just fits on each side. I still have a few fibers stuck underneath but they're only visible on bright white backgrounds (browser) and maybe I'll try to fix it this weekend, or not. I tend to introduce more dust specs every time I lift the thing with tape.
It is a fingerprint magnet but I keep a microfiber cloth handy to wipe it down if it bugs me.

Hmm. Maybe I shouldn't order one of these? Which style UF, UC, or UO compares to the power support crystal film?
Also, to the person asking about the Crystal Film release date, here is the email I got.

I got my matte back cover couple of days ago. I'm satisfied, and really like the texture at the back.
luckily I only like the back cover because the screen cover's bottom was crinkled and the adhesive was gone.

Tweeted back and forth with support at SGP this was the response:
"However, since it is now a known defect, we'll expose of those defective batches. You may dispose of the defective UFs as we'll replace them"
They are supposed to overnight all new one's on Monday when a new batch arrives, time will tell

Just ordered an Ultra Optics after failing horribly with a wrapsol install. Can't wait to get it!
