Some of us would rather preserve the phone's entire case, screen, and
keypad from dirt, scratches, knocks etc, Especially as the SE t610/t630
does NOT have easilly changeable inexpensive Xpress-on covers. Also a good
leather pouch WILL protect the phone a lot better if where to be dropped
on the floor.

However I can understand the use of screen-protectors, for items like
Pocket PCs, Palms, etc, with their very easily damaged *touch-sensitive*
screens. Damage the screen on one of these, and it usually writes the PDA
off.

Anyway as they say, 'horses for courses'.
