I am looking for a supplier of screen foils and for an extra battery (to permit watching films on flights). I am in the UK, can anyone suggest somewhere either here or on the net/ebay?

I bought a Brando Screen Protector from pdashop.nl, must say the protector is very good, no glare & no scratches anymore. & my screen is brutalized by the kids with arkaball & other games.
Cheers, M

I saw this on Ebay, it claims to be 1,5Ah but seemed to be unsure whetcher it was a 3.6 or 3.7v
Has anyone tried one?
Also on ebay there were many selling protective foils - I would guess 3M ones would be OK - yet some were selling them in muliples of 12 or 14?
So are they crap or are they crap? :lol:
I bought a screen protector from the user "addonsworld", the 'name' of the protector is SENSIFILM.
DO NOT BUY THIS! IT SUXS
It kinda distorted the image, you seems to able to see RGB of your little pixel and it is EXPENSIVE!
I paid €15 for my previous mentioned Brando screen protector. Not cheap for a small piece of plastic, worth every penny though. Really not a single scratch in one month of heavy use.
Cheers, M
Brando Screen Protectors
Anywhere to buy them on a site either in English or French???? Tried Google, but didn't get more than the Dutch & Belgian sites....
Well this is in English http://shop.brando.com.hk/screenprotector.php
Cheers, M
Ok, so pardon me for intruding, but... any source for screen protectors in Italy? ("real" shops in the Milano area are fine, less expensive brands even better).
Thanks in advance!
Brando's for ten euros delivered!
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=5867264460
but there were other sellers doing TWENTY-EIGHT 3M ones for that price - so is 3M not a good enough make to work well and not need changed 28 times in the same time?

I just ordered the protector from Boxwave. I'll let you know. I found this article to be helpful (although its a few years old):

Batteries
http://www.lionbattery.com
They sell Mugen Power high capacity batteries. I used to own the 2400 for my BA: absoulutely fabulous!
Apparently there are new models for the wizard (4400mAh!!!). With that, you can go straight to SanFrancisco!!!
they are in Canada but they have quick and cheap shipping.
I do recommend them.
Cheers,
Hal

Unfortunately you'll have to pay extra to the charter company for the extra weight you'll carry
Those things are seriously huge;

http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=43510
And that's just the 2600mAh one. I would seriously be scared of a 4400mAh!
My magician was replaced by a brand new one this week. It came without a screen-protector & although TMO has promised to send one to me I immediately bought a Brando, again. Don't know tge quality of the 3M, but Brando is IMHO excellent.

Hello everybody, especially to my fellow Filipino's...
I'm trying to find the best screen protector for my XDA2. Can you tell me what brand it is? if its available in the Philippines and where I can buy it? How much is it?
Right now, i'm using a screen protector which was designed for Palm PDA's. Obviously it's not the best screen protector for the XDA. Hope somebody can help me with this query.
Thanks..
You can check out the XDA II screen protectors at Mobile One, Quad, Makati, or at X-site, Megamall A basement. I can't say which one is the best though since I don't use one on my XDA II. I put a screen protector on my old iPAQ once but I didn't like it so I removed it.
I've had a Martin Fields Overlay Plus on my XdaII for over six months and it's still in very good condition despite my six year old playing games on it - if you can get MFOP I don't think you'd be disappointed.

Hope I can find this brand..
You can also try Brando Ultraclear... I've been using this one on my XDA2, washed it several times and still in very good condition... Got mine in xSite Megamall...
Yajp - When you say 'washed it' do you mean removed it and washed it or just cleaned the top surface?
I have a Brando Ultra which is superb but I'd love it even more if I can do that
Codeus.
Yes, I removed it and washed it (w/o detergents). Make sure to dry it using a hair dryer (as instructed on the cover), co'z when I tried to dry it using an electric fan water stains were present.
Thats excellent, I can get rid of that annoying piece of dust I got stuck under it when applying the film.
Thanks.
On my old XDA(1) I managed to to put a centimeter-long scratch on the screen while simply navigating a menu. I don't know if a tiny piece of dust got caught on the end of the stylus or something but I couldn't find an explanation for how it happened.
Ever since that incident I have seen screen protectors as an essential item, the Brando being the best I've come across so far (cost me £4.99 on ebay).

How much is the going rate for the screen protector in these shops?
Hi guys,
In case people haven't seen this one before. A uhm.. Case for the himalaya, it makes the device look more cool, and less nerdy i think. Better then the typical admin style ledercase.
Would love to use this one, too bad it's so expensive.

It is available for less elsewhere. I am using one that I paid 900 baht (18 euros) for in Thailand. JavoEdge sells them for US$28.95 (22.30 euros). If you buy one, be sure to get good screen protectors too. I use the Martin Field's Overlay Plus. Now if I could just find a way to get a commission from these guys!
i would get this one
http://zxpro.com/catalog/product_16...20_with_unbreakable_screen_cover_cat_325.html
i havent come across any screen protectors which was able to save the screen if the xda fell on a corner of a table or something
the pure silecon imho protects the part of the xda which is protected the most already

I had never seen that one before. Other than the belt clip, it looks great; and I'm pretty sure you can remove the belt clip. Part of my problem with belt clips is that people here will steal your phone off your belt. No sense advertising you have an expensive phone.
I got one of those silicone cases (not the one with the screen protector, the first one). Cost about £5 off ebay.
Re: Nice Silcone Cover
I too bought one of the silicon cases. Very happy with it apart from one aspect: with it fitted, the Himalaya will not fit on the Sync Cradle! It is just slightly too bulky. This means I have to repeatedly take the cover on and off and, even over a week or so, I can feel the cover is less 'snug' than it used to be. I suspect it is getting stretched.
Hi guys, looking to get a screen protector for my M500,
i heard these normally come in the box? my mate who has the T-Mobile version of the magician said that he goes his in the box?
What are your experiences with screen protectors and where did you buy yours from?
i bought my imate jam from dubai, didnt come with a screen protector in the box, was expecting to get one here in the US but cant find teh right size in any stores so now i have 2 options, order it online or buy a universal one that you cut out to the shape of the screen
Screen Protectors
Why buy a screen protector whynot make lots of them
use an A4 sheet of overhead projector acetate and cut
to the size of your PDA screen and add an extra 1/4" to
each end and tuck it under the screen ends. When its
dirty etc...just cut another one ! :idea:
the screen protector that came with my mda compact was of very bad quality compared to the one I was using on my former HP 6310, which I got from Proporta.com.
So I ordered one for the jam and its great. It is washable, anti reflective, scratchresistent and responsive to stylus action. Their sevice is great also. They even include a sac of english breakfast tea in the shipment.
so go for it.
I am using martin fields, I am not an expert in this, but i get alot of positive review on it and the expert rate it 9/10. maybe u can check it at www.overlayplus.com and see what u think
thanks for the help guys,
ended up going for the martin fields one!
just ordered it off eBay for £8.50! not bad at all!
eBay Auction Info: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=5800092770
let you know when i recieve it!
I have always been a Martin Fields fan, but lately it seems to me they are not that durable anymore?
Less than a month ago I replaced my protector and there's already scratch marks over each individual letter on the virtual keyboard. I don't write enough for that to be acceptable, so I will soon be looking for another brand
http://www.expansys-usa.com have lots of accessories for the JAM. I've ordered a screen protector from the UK version.
Screen protectors
I can recommend Brando Ultra Clear protectors - they are durable and very very clear. $USD13 inc shipping.

I am in the market for a case for my k-jam does anyone have an aluminium case it looks from the sites that the front is totally clear is this a type of plastic or is it just open, if its plastic this seems perfect for what i want, i hate screen protectors but dont want my greesy ear marks on the actual device screen
Anyone confirm this for me
Thanks
Chris
Cases
Hi,
I've ordered a aluminium case from PDAir. The front contains a plastic window so your tft screen is safe. Alle buttons can be used normally while the wizard is in the case. Have a look at:
http://www.pdair.com/scripts/main/viewitem_v2.php?itemid=2196&pdaid=194
to find more information. And by the way shipping is for free.
Nico[/url]
Once you recieve it can you please let us know how much it adds to the length, width and height of the wizard?
hey,
i've had this for the last coupla weeks and let me tell you... it's a lifesaver!
i have dropped my precious kjam only once while it was in the case (on marble, too!) and it was saved.
if you love yours, get one of these. i don't trust a leather case as much.
ciao!
hey bartgomes and is it possible to keep carrying wizard in your pocket? i keep mine there and dont use this horizontal case that comes with it. I mean does it really increase size so it becomes uncomfortable?
regards
i also have one of the pdair aluminium cases and can highly recommend.
when in the case the dimensions are L-111mm,W-65mm and D-29mm.
it gives you access to all the buttons(except top 2 soft keys;IE and mail on mini s),sd card slot,stylus,usb port,headphones and the camera lens has a cut out.
its looks very smart and fits in your pocket a lot better than "the old ladies purse" that it comes with.
:lol:
got mine off ebay last week from hong kong took about a week to arrive only £13.69. bargain worth every penny.
http://stores.ebay.co.uk/IN-Technology-Co
this is his shop but i cant see any more listed at the moment.
Try this ebay shop for Pdair cases for K-JAM
http://stores.ebay.co.uk/Pda-Gear
and do a search for K-JAM .. at least they are UK based??

I have just bought one of these, and they come with a free screen protector.
All for just under £14.
Sweet.
Hi, my device is HTC Cingular 8525. I want to get a screen protector film. I do have one now pushed on my phone, but its too cheap as I can see scrathes I made on it after one week use. I want get a new better one that doesn't have such kind of problem. I already look a lot of products. ZAGG's InvisibleShield ones seem good but I don't think buying a film for 15 dollars when my phone only worth 100 dollars is a good idea. Also I found on Ebay some item ask 10$ including shippment, but I don't know whether they are good. Therefore I want to ask: Anyone here has any recommendation? (Website links, keywords, ebay seller name, all welcomed) I want a screen protector totally charges below $10 with a reasonable protection against scrathes (both screen and film itself should be okay with scrathes made by stylus pen in normal use)
