There’s is something I have been buying for years across many different products. When I first saw it on the self it looked like a great idea. And I keep finding more uses for them. Eventually, someone else figured out they may be useful in other areas and that is where they are marketed now.
See, I’m kind of lazy or rather I just don’t like to repeat things. I cleaned that counter once last month. That should be enough. Things get dirty and things that touch skin all the time get the dirtiest. Have you looked at you work phone lately? Some people don’t understand this, “Hello iPod”. What’s worse are indelible scratches and marks on expensive equipment.
So, the first time I saw plastic screen covers for PDAs I fell in love. The first thing I did was buy one and put it on the new camcorder. That is where they are marketed today. Screen covers for the little LCD screens on digital cameras and camcorders. Cameras should come with these things the same way AA batteries ship with everything.
My latest use is on the MacBook touch pad for the mouse. I was concerned that it wouldn’t stick or would make it stop working. Actually, it works better. The surface is slicker and your finger slides over it much better than the original one. It almost covers the entire surface except for 1-2 mm.
Another amazing use for thick Saran Wrap with weak glue on one side.
