Kindle Comes Out Swinging Against the iPad

The ad is well done, although a bit misleading, but what ad isn't these days? I've found that when I turn up the brightness I don't have the glare issue, and so that I don't run down my battery as fast I just put an anti-glare screen protector on it. I hardly notice it, but I also am hardly ever poolside so my experience in this environment is limited. I will say this however, at $139.00 USD, that thing is cheap enough that you can own your iPad AND a Kindle. How about you, have you found glare to be a problem when you use your iPad outside?

Relief Is On The Way For Glossy Hatas

"ClearCal AG (anti-glare) films greatly improve the viewability of glossy glass displays when used in brightly lit or outdoor environments. ClearCal films combine a tempered 2-mil matte finished, anti-reflection layer, permanently laminated to a 3-mil flexible transparent base. A blemish-healing siliconized adhesive provides an optically-correct, yet easily removable bond that conceals existing surface defects like abrasions and scratches. The siliconized adhesive is permanently bonded to the base layer and will never leave any residue behind if later removed."

Well there you have it. If you're one of those folks who just can't live with the glossy display, this might be your solution. I think I may pick one up just to see if it does what it says it does, but it does work in the marketing materials and we know that that always translates into real-world experience.
