Abstract
A glass touch screen protector for a portable electronic device having a front face including a touch screen portion and an outer perimeter. The touch screen protector can include a glass sheet having front and back sides, an outer perimeter that corresponds to that of the device, and a transparent window portion; and a spacer provided along the outer perimeter of the glass sheet surrounding the transparent window portion, having a thickness sufficient to space the glass sheet near but not in contact with the touch screen portion, and an exposed adhesive for removably mounting the protector upon the outer perimeter of the front face to form an enclosed air space between the transparent window portion of the plastic film, the spacer and the touch screen portion of the device. The glass sheet can be convex in shape with respect to the touch screen portion of the portable electronic device.
