Not to resurrect an old thread, but for what its worth, you really don't need a screen protector. I took a OG Droid that's screen went dead and decided to test the legendary Gorilla Glass myself. Tried to scratch it with a screw driver and couldn't even put a mark on it. Annoyed, I decided to take a hammer to it. Hit after hit (not nail driving hard, but damn hard non the less) it just sat there glaring back at me, all pristine and scratchless. I eventually broke it through the use of a sledgehammer, but that was a sledgehammer. I have since yanked the one off my D2 and enjoyed the naked feeling against my finger is a fling the birds into chaos! So go nude on your G Glass, it can take it.

It is truly nicer isn't it? I used to have a Samsung Eternity when I was with AT&T, and after about a month, that screen was cover in scratches just from the dust from my work enviroment. 3 months with my D2, having dropped it numerous times onto abrasive surfaces and it still has zero screen scratches. The body on the other hand is starting to show some signs of damage. Will probably by a otterbox to keep it from getting any worse, but that will be it for me.

Well, I know a screen protector wont stop broken glass. My brother had a screen protector on his and it didnt stop his from getting broken. Screen protector are to prevent scratches, which Gorilla Glass does nicely on its own.
