OK, now I'm beginning to understand what's happening. I've never owned a
130 or 120, but after 3-4 years of doing this I should have heard every
problem there is by now. Guess not. If the last message is correct,
then what you are seeing is not air bubbles, but adhesion spots that
cause Newton rings (as in Sir Issac, not Apple). We have a film that we
sell to the Palms, Visors, Pocket PC's and such that eliminates this
problem (and is the subject of our filed patent). The film is clear and
has no glare protection. If you wish, I'll be happy to swap them for the
clear film. It will take about one week to have the correct films cut
and prepared, though. Curious, the original seller of the Barrier never
had a special film for the 120's or older models to fix this issue.
