Ouch. I would be afraid of scratching my writeright. Actually, I seldom had
big problems, only the first couple I put on, but you have to be veery
careful to not rush it. Once on, and especially after a couple days, you
can't even tell it's there!

I could never get more than six months out of my WriteRights, but they would
be in pretty bad shape by that point! Usually I changed after the third
month. I can't imagine going a year or more! I like a clean-lookng
screen---unfortunately, my 2100 has a horribly worn screen, and I no longer
have that. I like to play with my kids' 120s however, just to see a pretty
screen. ;-)
