Thanks for the vid, Kevin! Do you notice any difference in response to your gestures with the screen protector on there?

Still feels fine.

There must be a place nearby where you can get those nails done...

my question about this case. what happens when you want to take it off? will the playbook have a sticky residue left all over the back? or is it kinda a perminent case?

This is quoted from the description on the BodyGuardz website.

"Installation is simple and, when removed, the BodyGuardz Armor Carbon Fiber will not leave any sticky residue."

Pretty slick looking, I'd have to say...

How do you avoid getting specks of dust in there? I ALWAYS seem to get 1 speck dust no matter HOW careful I am with screen protectors. :(

Got my PlayBook yesterday and after setup I installed the BodyGuardz shield. The carbon fiber look is very nice and I actually like how it feels when compared to the original rubberish backing of the PB. The screen protector feels nice and smooth, not grippy like other protectors I have used on different devices. A tip for keeping dust off the screen protector; have a roll of masking tape handy! If you spot a speck of dust just lift the shield and dab at the area with a bit of tape and it will pull the dust off. Took me the better part of 30 mins to install (I'd remove some dust but more would appear elsewhere) but well worth it!

First, thanks for the great info and video Kevin, it is very much appreciated. I do however have one question for you: Based on NinjaBread's comment, is the skin slick thereby possibly slipping out of the hand? I prefer a rubbery grip myself, like on the Playbook and my Torch as I don't want to drop it. Again, thanks so much for everything you do support us CrackBerry Addicts.

kwkid, IMO the carbon fiber still gives it a grippy feel but doesn't feel 'soft' like the original backing does. I just prefer the solid feel so I guess it is really down to personal preference.

I was wondering if BodyGuardz Armor Carbon Fiber case gets in the way of the PlayBook charging pod.
