Every single unit has the protective film still on the polarizer, they were not removed by Quanta (we can get this next time!). You can take off your protective film, carefully, it's only 4 screws - all on the bottom of the brick (the brick is the LCD - motherboard assembly), you have rotate the brick to the left, unscrew the two screws that you can get to (philips
 head), and then rotate to the right and get the other two screws.

Next take off the left and right short green things (part of the "bumper), and then take off the plastic face plate over the LCD. Now you can peel
 the thin protective layer of plastic off the polarizer.

I tried to do that yesterday. After disassembling the unit, I tried to peel off the film starting at the display's upper left corner. However, what came off was a rather sturdy layer of plastic sheet. I had expected some thin film like you would get on any new mp3 player's display. But this layer was like a part of the display itself. Fortunately, I only took off like 5 mm, and because it didn't feel right, I tucked it back in.

So ... what should the protective film look like? Did anybody else try this? Is it a notable difference in appearance, or should I rather leave it alone?
