Since the screen really doesn't need any protection I would wait a month to see if anyone is reporting any issues.

Will a screen protector mess up my iPhone?

I would just prefer not to wait a month and find out I should have put that screen protector on and then it's too late.
I just put one on. It's my first iPhone and first anti-glare protector. The screen is noticably dimmer with it on. I moved the brightness up slightly to compensate.
However, it has a GREAT feel compared to the Switcheasy clear protector I have on my Touch.
As soon as my 3G S came out of the box, I put the protector on. I just don't want to scratch the screen--that would RUIN the whole phone for me. And I would be STUCK with it.
The PowerFilm one is static cling, so I really doubt it would have any effect on the coating.
I kind of wanted to play around with the coating to see how it works, but it's just not worth risking a scratch to me.
you will OBSESS if you scratch it, and that will be the ONLY thing you see when you use your phone...

Yupp, I just don't want to waste it.
PowerSupportusa.com says to clean it wash it lightly with water. I'm doing that right now, and letting it air dry.
Hopefully it will work, if not, I'll use the other one and/or call up PowerSupport USA get a refund for everything, and just go without a screen-protector.
I see, it happened to me before and cleaning didn't work so had to use the 2nd one. This time on 3Gs 1st tried perfect.
