How much protection you want is a personal preference and how you are going to use it. If you are going to carry it on your hip like a pager especially while working, just remember is a $600 investment. So is putting a screen protector on going to hurt it, no. Will it possibly save you problems, yes. So I recommend it. But if it's going to sit on a desk and never move, no. I didn't use unications. I just bought a cheap cell phone protector from Walmart and cut it to size. I got 2 of them cut from 1 sheet. Now I'm hard on my pager. I work 2 fd jobs. So it takes some abuse. But my screen underneath is fine so for me it was well worth it. The pager comes with a plastic cover on the screen out of the box for shipping. I used that as a template for my cut.
