Cool - which one is it? I might evaluate them and see what I think. Then I'll have Desmo's and yours to play with - though maybe not at the same time

Don't they use some kind of static to attach rather than just having a sticky side?

I'm not convinced about the static cling claims, but I have no way of knowing one way or the other. Many do use some form of mild adhesive - I'd probably compare it with what they use for post-it notes.

Rubber on clean glass is always going to have a high coefficient of friction though and mini vacuum created between the glass and rubber.

Like I said, I know nothing.

I guarantee you'll want to play with mine longer, it's far more tactile and just feels... nicer...

There is NO sticky adhesive - it uses static cling adhesion. As I said I've taken one off after 6 months. Trust me, it just peels off like a car sticker when you want to take it off leaves no trace.

They leave no residue at all.

No, but by the nature of surface tension and the large surface area only a very mild adhesive is needed.

They're plastic sheets with a very mild, and relatively fluid, adhesive

Can't wait. Besides, with Leo's lame fingers I best get practising
