I ordered a both a brando and a overlay plus (to decide for myself wich I liked best...) from p800er.com last monday.
Saturday I ended up fighting the eternal fight against alcohol, and of course I managed to scratch up the display of my dear p800
Anybody know if it's possible to change just the upper part of the screen? Or does the whole lcd thingy have to be changed?
Wish I'd opted for the quickest shipping option :/

The upper part? How do you mean?
You mean above the flip?
The whole screen is one and the same thing, have to replace the whole thing

what about making a incsion over the scratched area to remove the thin film above the screen then place some thin clear plastic over it and c#glue it down.

I was thinking about the upper layer of the screen. If you look closely, it seems to me as if there is a thin film that lays over the screen (as Vermania says). It is best visible if you get a reflection on the screen - if you push it with the stylus, you see the reflction gets distorted. Is it possible to change just this layer, og is it stuck to the lcd? And if it IS - why the F**K is it? Couldn't they just have eliminated the need for a screenprotector if it was rather cheap end easy to replace? In think it would be a good idea - but of course my opinion is a bit subjective because of the fact that mine is scratched

Planb,
Since you've ordered both (Brando & Overlay Plus), please let me know what's the difference between them as I'm not very satisfy with my Brando because it does not fit the
P800 perfectly!

Concerning screen protection, it's a must to buy one. I've got a R380s for about a year now, and some serious scratches have shown up on the display where the flip uses to be (from the uncountable buttonhits)

For me, investing on a screen protector for such an expensive device like the
P800 is worth every penny!
To own it without protecting it is like drinking vintage wine in a paper cup!

The Overlays definitely make the screen much nicer to look at, but there are some points where the Brando is better:
a) The Brando gives the screen a "writing on paper" feel, but the Overlays give a more "writing on plastic" feel.
b) The Overlays are easier to get smudged by fingerprints; you have to wipe the screen more than when using the Brandos.
Anyway, I think that you should stick with ordering the Overlays; the brighter and more vivid screen is worth it when compared to the trade offs.
