From the Newton Talk List last May:

The display has a textured surface, see Daniel Padilla's microscopicphoto

< http://dev.newtontalk.net/~dpadilla/ >

Frank Gruendel has carefully polished all the textured material off

to get a display surface similar to the 120.

for one discussion, you will find additional discussion in the

archives if you search the archives for K3 polish.

Matt screen protectors will reduce the noticeability wear.

Ok, here's one, i'd just gotten a new LCD panel for the MP2K from

ebay, but once i tired to fit it to the newt i noticed that this

isn't what i needed, since its the top layer of the screen (the glass

with the digitizer) thats scratched and needs fixing and not the LCD

panel below it, dope!, so the LCD panel is no use.

anyway, now i've figured i can't use this LCD panel for anything, i'm

now looking at how best to get rid of the scratches in the glass

screen, anyone had any luck doing this, i thought about some ultra-

fine rubbing compound to polish out the scratches......
