I think the reason why it takes me so long is because it is 9 pieces, and I have to wait for each pieces to semi tackle (so it won't shift around) before I continue to the next pieces.

So my install didn't go as well as I would have liked last night. Just a few bubbles and lint in some places.

One thing I can definitely say is that the 8700g does fit in the Seidio Holster a bit tighter now and I may be concerned that the holster may scratch or stretch the skin on the back of the 8700g where the clip meets it.

I am ecstatic about finally removing the screen protector which came on the 8700g after about two weeks of ownership.
