I'm going to keep this simple and short.

Custom P800 Screen Protector Tutorial:

Step 1.

Download the screen protector template from
http://revign.com/P800_ScreenProtector.zip and Unzip the DWG file.

Step 2.

Download a free DWG viewer, or install any famous CAD software to open up and view the template.

Step 3.

Print out the template (14 protectors fit nicely on one page)

Step 4.

Go to any photocopy center and ask for their thinnest and clearest photocopy transparancies.

Step 5.

Photocopy the print-out onto the transparancies and slice out with an exacto knife or cutter.

I'm sorry for the lack of photos but this should be self-explanatory. I've been using one for a while, its all scratched up but not a single mark is on the P800 screen and even though some transparancies are thick, the flip closed mode still works fine.

Cheers.

Save yourself all the trouble & just buy the P800 Brando protector (works out about £8 to UK), they are so much better.

I have had my protector on for over 3 weeks now without a mark on the Brando protector (and I use writting recognition all the time).

With the soft WrightRight protectors I used on my iPAQ I had to change them every 3-4 weeks at best.

I took a risk buying the Brando based on opinion from this forum but everybody was right, the Brando's are superb.

Where did you order your brando from and how many days did it take to come?

Thanks.

@nikknakk

So that online shop is secure in your experience?
Sorry for all the far-east guys around here i mean no ofence, but i'm afraid of buying online from there.
When I think how that shop looks like, i imagine a dark narrow backstreet garage with 2 or 3 computers and a piles of cardborad boxes.

@bbasra Delivery is included in the price. "US$12.00(including shipment fee)" - taken directly from their screen protector page.

Was very impressed with the service. Screen protector was delivered very quickly to the UK. So have ordered a 128MB duo from them too.

Hi,

I've got my Brando direct from them and it shipped Hong Kong to the UK within 5 days. Brilliant

How much did it cost you in pounds? and did you have to pay and other tax?

Thanks.
