Product Description

Product Description
PF17.0 fits both notebook computers and LCD desktop monitors with a 17" viewable screen. Actual filter dimensions are 10.64" high x 13.30" wide. This filter is designed for non-widescreen laptop computers with screens that appear more square than rectangular and have a 4 x 3 aspect ratio. Privacy filter keeps confidential and private information private. 3M's microlouver privacy technology works like tiny vertical blinds so only persons directly in front of the monitor can see the image on screen. Passersby see only a darkened screen. Excellent for high traffic areas. Reversible for either glossy or matte screen finish. Reduces reflections when used with the matte side facing you. Protects your LCD panel from scratches and damage. New easy on easy off attachment system. If used on a notebook computer, the filter stays in place when the notebook is closed.

5.0 out of 5 stars Works Great, August 20, 2006

I bought this with some hesitation after reading one negative review...but I'm glad I got it because it works great but keep in mind you have to have the shiney side facing the monitor for it to work properly

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Product, August 23, 2006

By	Emily Watson (Medina, Ohio USA) - See all my reviews

You can almost completely stop those peeping toms with this filter. While it is not 100% effective, it does block or blur most of the view from people who are not directly behind you. You can kind of see the double sided tape squares you place in each corner to keep it affixed to your monitor but it isn't obvious enough to be annoying or distracting.

Amazon.com has the lowest price I could find on the web plus free shipping. I got my in 3 days and am completely satisified with this product.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great product!, October 4, 2006

By	Ramona "Author of Dynamic Belly Dance" (Atlanta, Georgia USA) - See all my reviews

I ride a bus twice a day and want some privacy there when working on my notebook computer, so I bought this product. It includes sticky tabs to affix the screen to the monitor, and also sticky tabs with little clear non-sticky handles so that you can slide the filter out when you don't need it. I used the ones that allow for easy removal of the filter, since I do not need the privacy screen except for when I'm riding the bus. The filter does somewhat darken the screen to the user, and it also does the job of keeping your screen private from people sitting nearby. I like this product and would recommend it to others.
