the t-mobile ones are junk... most people will tell you you dont need one... as the screen is nearly indestructable.... my vibrant had micro scratches and a small chip from 6 months of daily use. so I recommend using one. that said a good one is the realook is pretty decent...

as you can see its for the vibrant... so no opening for the FFC... i dont think it should be a problem but if it is im sure a well placed hole punch would solve that problem.

What's the best screen protector for reading ebooks for many hours on a Super AMOLED/Gorilla Glass screen?

I am thinking of going without the screen protector but would rather not. (I don't have the phone yet.)

I have an anti glare on my Nokia LCD phone and it really plays wonky with my eyes (swimming waves and such.)

Should I go with some kind of matte protector or something else? What about for my LCD screen on my current G2? Any difference?

It's not that it is the equivalent to Gorilla Glass, it is Gorilla Glass. The following phones have Gorilla Glass: every Samsung Galaxy S series phone, iPhone 4, & the Motorola Defy.

I have the Realook screen protector on my phone and I am not happy with it. I am going to replace it with Zagg. Check out their demonstration videos, it really works.

Zagg are the best IMO. Very minor "orange Peel" and extremely durable. It dries to crystal clarity as well. I tried the other major brand and the orange peel was horrendous to say the least.
