I received my Fujitsu Tablet PC today, and so far it's been enjoyable to use. I will blog more about my experiences after I've had some time to get to know it better. In the meantime, let me at least share one useful fact just in case you get a tablet of your own.
A tablet screen is more prone to getting scratched than a regular laptop screen because you write on it with a stylus. The product included a couple of screen protectors, so I peeled the adhesive backing off one and stuck it over the display. The trouble at this point is that the protector was a pale blue, making the contents of the screen quite hard to read. I could not understand why the protector was not clear, but figured that maybe it helped the display to be read in daylight. I was tempted to just remove it, but decided to leave it on because a tablet display is not cheap.
Later on the same day, I searched the Internet to see if I could purchase a clear screen protector instead of a blue one, and stumbled across this site. Apparently, what the computer instructions failed to point out is the screen protector itself has a secondary blue covering which should be peeled off once the protector is stuck to the display. Now that I've peeled off the blue layer, everything looks great.
Someone at Fujistu really needs to clarify this in the user manual!
haha, I totally had the same problem! thanks!

We recently received a Tablet PC and were stumped about the blue screen protectors. They seemed horribly crude due to the blue haze over the display. We finally found your blog and was shown the light.
Thanks,
Graham
