Same here. I must admit I've not noticed any 'touch' issues as a result of
applying it, but then I didn't use it a great deal without. It's never felt
unresponsive though.

I have used iPhones with protective screens on and found it horrible,
ie, didn't respond to my touch unless I really pressed it but I imagine
that not all screens are equal.

But I have disliked stick on covers since the early days. On the other
hand, if you want one on your screen I don't see why it is any of apples
business.

Mine came with a 15quid case from O2. SWMBO is using the same one on her 3GS
and, again, no problems reported. She _did_ use hers for a few days
without the cover and, trust me, I _would_ have known if there had been a
significant difference :-)

Quite, but it's also their business what they choose to sell.

Yes, you always seem to get them with cases, I have had about 5 of them
with various covers.
