    Hi,

    I've recently replaced the LCD screen in my good old T500.
    The original screen Was a matte screen and the new one is glossy.
    I've browsed through amazon and ebay, and also read this short e-bay guide:
    http://www.ebay.com/gds/How-to-Choo...tor-for-Your-Laptop-/10000000178589859/g.html

    But I've only become more confused and just can't seem to know what protector would be an exact physical match for my T500 screen, and would also suite my personal preferences.

    I would really appreciate some guidance on this - and perhaps even specific suggestions.
    Basically I'm looking for a high quality screen protector with the following personal preferences:

    a. Exact physical match for my beloved T500 screen (before everything else it must be an exact fit)
    b. I would much rather have a snap-in protector rather than a sticker-like one
    (no matter how good the sticker quality is, I'm quite clumsy and somehow can't get the darn thing applied correctly - my alignment is always messed up and those annoying bubbles always pop out. when I try to fix it eventually I just screw it up)
    c. I would like to be able to easily clean it, like those privacy screen guards which are easily applied and removed (but I'm not interested in one designed for this purpose).
    d. if possible I'm also looking for the screen protector to serve as a sort of an image enhancer.
    e. I usually use my laptop at home in low light, so I'm not interested in anti-glaring properties.
    f. As I got used to matte with my original screen I would prefer a matte coated protector.

    I know that the above points don't all add up and might even contradict each other.
    But all in all I might sum up my preferred choice as an exact-fit, snap-in, matte covered high quality screen protector.

    So, advice / directions / specific suggestions anyone?

    thanks in advance!!!
