guys i'm another nexus one user here.. got it 2 days ago from mr irwan.. the phone is now replacing my 3GS. it's a tough decision bcoz iPhone is such a great phone.. but my eagerness to test out new stuff is the main factor for all this to happen.. so far i've no problem with the nexus one, except i felt the typing is not that smooth as iPhone. the word come out on the screen is slower than my finger.. the feeling was the same like using omnia last time.. other than that it's a good phone. like shahz, i just need more apps then only i can be happier than now

QUOTE(shahz @ Feb 2 2010, 08:25 PM) Bahathir, you should've gotten this one: http://www.zagg.com/invisibleshield/google...ins-shields.phpLifetime warranty. Military grade, for sure never will scratch your phone. My brother uses on his iPhone. He changed it twice already coz it got dirty. And they replaced it for free. i'm using that one for my nexus  last time my 3gs is covered by Bodyguardz and somehow. i think that one is better.. but IS also very good !

QUOTE(bahathir @ Feb 2 2010, 11:04 PM) Oo... IC.  Then, I also like this alternatives BestSkinsEver. Same material as InvisibleSheild but cheaper. http://www.bestskinsever.com/servlet/StoreFrontBTW, 1 question. If you applied the InvisibleSkin, then you cannot open the back cover anymore? can. for the back it comes in 4 pieces. and 1 of them is for the battery cover QUOTE(syyang85 @ Feb 3 2010, 08:18 AM) from garage sale QUOTE(Rushy @ Feb 3 2010, 08:26 AM) I am also using invisible shield. But i am not satisfied with it as it does not cover the corners edge which need the most protection. I am not sure about others brand or it is very common for this kind of shield to not cover the edge. The shield is not really that fitting... yes that the stupid thing. the 4 edges r not covered. LOL.

QUOTE(bahathir @ Feb 3 2010, 11:43 AM) I suggest you to try with different browsers such as Firefox or Chrome. Or try it from other location/place or computers. Also do test or checksum the zip file. currently i'm in the office.. and the only computer i have is the macbook pro.. maybe i have to borrow my officemate's pc just to dl the file hahah
