Gap too large around edges, cutouts not precise
on January 26, 2013
Posted by: sfordin

This is a so-called "case-friendly" screen protector, the idea being that the protector doesn't extend as far out to the edges of the screen, thereby making it less likely to be peeled up by phone cases that wrap around the bezel. In practice though, the screen protector leaves a disconcertingly large area of the screen unprotected. I understand what Zagg was trying to do here, and I tried the protector with several different phone cases, but the gap around the edges of the screen was simply too large.
In addition, the cutouts for the Home button, speaker, and camera were not precise, and leave the space, respectively, below and above those areas unprotected.
I ended up returning this protector.
What's great about it: Plastic material
What's not so great: Gap around edges too large, cutouts not precise
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Finicky config, great picture; *works* with Linux

Contrary to what a previous reviewer has stated, the 950Q *does* indeed work fine in Linux. I'm using MythTV and TVtime on Ubuntu Karmic 9.10, and the picture is beautiful. Can't speak about other distros or even Ubuntu versions with the 950Q, but with Karmic 9.10, it's great, actually easier to get going than other Hauppauge PVR products I've used. One thing to remember is that its a DVB card, so you're going to use a /dev/dvb device, not a /dev/video device. In any case, I've also gotten it working well in Vista Home Premium using WinTV and Windows Media Center. Very nice tuner bundled with very lousy software, but you can work around the software. Nice unit for $79 bucks.
What's great about it: Great picture, works with Linux
What's not so great: Hauppauge software stinks, can be tricky to install
I would recommend this to a friend!
