Yep just got me one of these from zagg, material is way over priced, $25 for plastic. It took me a grand total of 4 hours to put it on, as I'm a perfetionist =( sad to say. I'm waiting and hoping it gets better because IT LOOKS AND FEELS LIKE CRAP! All the edges popping off make the phone feel cheap and there are so many bubbles i can't get rid of, how are people happy with this product? Does it take a while for all the corners to taper down (yes i did use palming and the wait 5 minutes technique), and also will the bubbles really come up and make the phone actually look NICE? i might post some pictures later, this is just terrible!

No offense but could your pics be any bigger or more blurry??  I really can't see any thing.  On my phone I had to wait a day or so and the bubbles went away.  I also used a blow drier on the lowest setting to help the corners to dry and stay on.  Have not had any problems with mine at all.

Full body isn't my thing. I just went with the Boxwave wich covers only the screen and I've been using it for over 3 months and it's great.
You might want to look around the Instinct Accessories Section of the forums.
They have couple posts on the InvisibleShield screen protector.

I bought a 3-pack of clear shields on eBay for about $10. I didn't want one on the back since it's already textured.

I had to apply 2 because the first one got a speck of dust, and resultant bubble, right in the middle of the display. But the second went on perfectly. No bubbles, no problems. Very smooth and you can't even tell there's a protector on the screen unless you look really closely at the edges.

Invisible Shield is a ripoff. They sell the exact same item as the eBay sellers for over 8 times the price.

Invisible Shield is pretty awesome. So far, i've got one on my Instinct, on my iPod and my gf's iPod and on her mac book pro. The bubbles WILL go away and it will smooth out. I did have an issue with the bottom corners on the Instinct not wanting to stay down. I may re-wet them and try again on that part.

I recommend the invisible shield to everyone! It is time consuming getting it on correctly, but once on, thats it.

mine turned a yellowish brownish tint on all the edges after a week so I pulled it off, but the material seemed it would protect the phone. I didnt like it wasnt for me.

Get the Boxwave screen protector......I believe is much better.
http://www.boxwave.com/products/categories/screen_protectors.htm

And get the Slim Rubberized Shell Case - Samsung Instinct
http://www.boxwave.com/products/rubberizedslimcase/samsung-instinct-rubberized-slim-case_3181.htm

With both of them in place, your Instinct is well protected
all around.

Ditto on the Boxwave screen protectors, I tried the invisable shield and they were to sticky for my taste but the Boxwave feels and looks likr you don't have a screen protector on it at all, very slick and smooth.

I got the full body invisible shield from Zagg. The only parts I ended up using were the large back piece and the front piece. The back piece looks "out of place" because it creates a glossy finish on what is obviously not a glossy surface. However, both of those pieces are pristine on my phone. You can absolutely not tell I have a screen protector on the front of my phone; and it only took me about 5 minutes to apply the front piece.

I will say that the side pieces do not adhere well, and I would not personally recommend the purchase of the full body shield to other members. However, I would strongly recommend the front piece without hesitation.

Wait untill you try to take it off.  You won't be fully recomending it after that.  Don't mean to be rude, but I've gone through ot and it's no fun.  Leaves HEAVY reidue.

Interesting. I recently removed one from an old GPS unit I sold to a friend, and it left no residue. It had been on there for two years. Obviously different customers are having different experiences with the product.

Maybe I had a bad one or something.  I loved it on my ipod.  Only complaint was that the corners started coming up and collecting dirt.  I had it on there for three years and just recently I had to remove it and it was really messy.  They are completely impossible to rip though.  I have to agree with some of the other people though, the boxwave screen protector is amazing and I think I would find the invisibleshield to be a little too "sticky" for a touch screen phone.
