Be very careful. I have damaged a few gadget using the spray that comes with the invisible screen protector.
Fitting the shield is very difficult even on a small gadget.
On my HTC HD2 a water stain could be seen through the glass screen because of too many tries at wetting and adjusting the screen protector. Be very careful!

ZAGG screen protectors works well for me.

I got a screen protector from Cimo Cases (link below) and it works fine. I'm not too fond of the orange peel look of the Zagg screen protectors (and the high price)

Is one really needed? I don't plan to use one as Apple doesn't think they are needed.

What makes you think Apple doesn't think they're needed?

Re: What's the best iPad screen protector?

I had such a hard time putting a screen protector on my iPhone, that I am kind of stressing about having to put one on a huge iPad screen. If you put them on wrong, and then pull it off, do they leave a sticky residue on the screen? I'd hate to screw it up...

Apple won't sell them at Apple stores anymore....

I think the reason apple won't sell them at the stores anymore is because too many people who put the screen protectors on-- and messed up-- wanted to exchange their iPod Touches. I think apple doesn't want the hassle so they stopped selling them. And of course, now they are claiming that the iPad doesn't "need" a screen protector.

Apple apparently doesn't sell any and says they "are not necessary" I think otherwise.
