I did a quick search but didn't find this.

When I was in Japan a few months ago, I saw a really cool product. It's some kind of film that you put over the Powerbook or iBook or iMac screen that really enhances the clarity and crispness of the screen.

The only reason why I hesitated in buying it was that the salesperson (who had trouble understand/speaking English) told me that the film was not removable, which I find hard to believe.

My question is: Does anyone know where to get it? And/or does anyone have any experience with this type of film I'm talking about?

I'm not trying to start a discussion/war on Apple's screen vs. Sony Xbrite or anything like that. I'm just looking for feedback about this product. Thanks.

I have been tempted to get it myself but don't know wether I should or not. I use their film for my ipod and it works good, its just that i have slight bubbles towards the edges -_-;;

I'd be worried about the 15" one. I bought a removable screen protector by MacAlly and I found out that they sized it for the TiBook's 15" screen which is slightly different size than the Albook screen. It fit perfectly on the TiBook but had a gap on the top and bottom for the AlBook.
