I recently upgraded from an Ipaq 3760 to an Ipaq 3950 series PDA. I
noticed the screen is brighter, but also I am getting more glare in the
cockpit. Have others tried the anti-glare screen protectors and do
they help?

Actually, some of us would consider that to be a downgrade, for
precisely the reason indicated in this post (want to sell your 3760?
8^). Certain anti-glare screen protectors help a bit (I use BoxWave
ClearTouch Anti-Glare), but the real problem for many 45+ year old eyes
is that the backlighting on transflective displays is just not bright
enough to provide adequate contrast in bright sunlight. Reflective
displays (like the 3760 has) have better contrast in sunlight, their
weakness is in dim lighting, such as being under a dark cloud, or in an
office.

About the only solution I've come up with is maximizing the contrast on
the display, by using a pure white background with black markings. I'm
going to try white on black at some point to see if that works better...
