here's a tip for those of you who may be slightly unhappy with the results of your installation of these films:
first and foremost, wash your hands!
have some "Scotch" tape handy... the standard transparent stuff. take that and everything else with you into the bathroom and turn on your shower to hot. the steam will help pull much dust out of the air. unfortunately, this will not completely resolve any dust on your person that will fall onto the screen as you're applying the protective film... but to minimize the issue, use the included strips of white tape that comes with the kit to cover your device's screen until the last second before you go to apply the film. BUT, now you'll take strips of the scotch tape and apply it to the adhesive side of the film (the adhesive side of both the tape and film facing each other). tape up the underside except for a narrow strip down the middle... leave it exposed. now lay the taped film upon the glass. the now smaller area of exposed adhesive on the film will allow you to easily readjust the the film to get the alignment just perfect.
once you're properly aligned, press firmly on the area that's exposed, removing any air bubbles. using a firm grip while holding the film to the glass, begin to gently pull the Scotch tape out from between the film and glass without lifting the film upwards... just pull the tape outwards slowly. this will maintain your exact alignment (this is especially important for a high grade film like PowerSupport's due to their very accurate sizing). if there are any bubbles, smooth them out with a squeegee, but be careful if there are any trapped particles so as not to create irreparable pimples in the film.
now, if you discover any trapped particles or need to make adjustments after install, start by tearing off a couple more pieces of Scotch tape, about 2 inches long, and attach one to each end of the screen once your screen protector is installed. these will be used to help lift the screen protector from the glass easily and without damaging the film. it also helps prevent dirt from beneath your fingernails from being stuck to the adhesive surface of the film as you wont need to scrape up a corner of the film.
turn off your iphone on and open a blank Safari page. tear off a few more pieces of Scotch tape and have it ready at the edge of the work surface. look carefully at the screen; with the white screen you'll be able to more easily see any lint trapped under the film. larger dust particles will be easy to spot as they may cause bubbling. now keep in mind that these particles are stuck to the mild adhesive underside of the protective film.
now gently lift up the film using the tape you applied to each end of the device. while holding the film barely off the surface of the glass, take a strip of tape with the sticky side up and place it under any dust particles you saw, between the film and glass. now press down on the dust particle, letting go of the film. now hold the film to the glass and pull the end of the inverted strip of tape.
et voila! the dust and lint should be stuck to the tape. repeat this procedure until satisfied, being extra careful while removing the tape you used to lift the film off the surface to prevent creasing the film. this is the best way i know of to get a completely dust-free installation without having to locate a sealed, dust-free facility.

I've used power support products for all of my previous apple displays and was quite happy until my last experience with my Iphone 4G and PS crystal back. The anti glare goes on rather well, but the crystal back is a disappointment as it does not fit well in the flash/lens portion to the edge. The website indicates that it fits with the bumper, and I must disagree, as the edge continues to pull out and cannot seem to be adjusted to lay flat when taken in and out of a pocket. It seems to be too close to the edge and pulls away too easily. I tried to get some support from the company, but after three emails and pictures, I gave up looking for a replacement crystal backing and will move on to another product. My experience has shown me that the crystal film products from this company are a disappointment, as was the email exchange with customer service. I will stick with the anti glare front for now.

I have tried a couple films and this is the best one around. Thick enough to actually protect and clear and thin enough not to be noticed. I keep my phone in my pocket which sometimes has change or keys in it.
The crystal film is the best. The antiglare film softens the details on your screen. The film doesn't reduce screen touch sensitivity and is resistant to fingerprints.
I gave it 4 stars here rather than 5 because you can get it for half this price, only $14.95, at the manufacturer's site (or importer) powersupportusa.com .
The only problems were with installation. I ruined a film trying to install it the first time. The films are very susceptible to dust and fingerprints on the contact side. Install the film in an area as free of dust as possible, wash your hands to remove dust and oils, wipe the phone with a lint free cloth. One speck of dust under the film will create a small bubble. Despite the instructions there is no way to remove dust once it is on the contact surface, you just get more contamination fiddling with it. Also, touching the contact side will leave fingerprints that can't be removed. This applies to the edges and corners especially when installing.
When placing the film VERY carefully line it up with the screen at the top or bottom and roll the film onto the screen to avoid trapping bubbles. Doing this while holding the film just at the edges is hard. I am sure this is why they give you two screens because you are going to screw it up the first time. Apply the back film first to get the feel of the process. I don't think you even need a back protector but it is good for practice. If you place the film and are not totally happy with the orientation lift it back up at one corner with tweezers then pull it off and place it again. If you lift it at the corner with your fingernail and grab it with your fingers it will leave a permanent dull area at the corner where you touched the contact side. Good Luck
