[Nexus 7 (2013) Accessories] dbrandSkins:
Robots went to Vegas for a coupla days[/URL], but we're now back. Pushing 1k emails since we left. Expect a response within the next 24-48h, just wanted to stop by here first to keep the core audience in the loop. It may get kind of long because of the responses to people's questions, so here is hte tl;dr: We have fully rolled out the Nexus 7 2013 line, including new Mahogany. The how to apply tutorial video is live. If you haven't already, it's honestly our best tutorial yet. Throw us some interaction if youtube is your thing. We will be rolling out a "no nexus", perhaps even a "just the x" option within the next week for the Nexus 7. As you can see, the photos are nearly complete. Just have to go shoot the few "FORGOT" items, then it's a wrap. Once this is live, upkeep will be negligible. It was just the bulk of the content all completed at once... it's tough to find enough minutes in the week.

As do we. We're looking to introduce a matte white and black finish to offer as our "Matte Grip" series.

Not to worry, I never forgot about your question. #1 - We do, but not any time in the near future. Screen protectors are a difficult item to produce and there is really only one caliber that is acceptable on our scale: Perfect. There's a company we're looking to partner with, but they're not responding at all to our advances. Give it a bit. We'll get it going eventually. Other issue is that manufacturing, handling, etc... of clear vinyl requires a 100.0% dust free environment. Even a single speck could render a unit useless for sale. #2 - If we do #1, we'd definitely do it the way you described.

Thanks so much for the positive review. I'm surprised that the corner applied without any heat required, you must live in a hot climate. We do recommend to use a hairdryer, as is seen in the how-to-apply tutorial video..

Against the grip of the N7 backing itself, only our upcoming "Matte Grip" series will be able to match. It feels great on the front, the closest you'll get to grip on the back is probably the True Color or CF series we have.

That actually looks sick, can you send a higher-resolution photo to robots@ourdomain.com? Would love to share that pic.

Sincerely hoping it arrived by now.

Unacceptable!! To make up for this grievous error, please allow to send you this drawing (which I just had them draw)

As well as a free front/back piece. Respond back and let me know what you'd like.

Indeed a skin can go on to a screen protector. However you'll have to apply it properly on your first try. The adhesive on the back of our skins bonds very strongly to other pieces of vinyl (screen protectors are also made of vinyl). If you misalign during installation, it will result in either the skin or the screen protector (or both) being ruined during removal. What we recommend is that, if you can find a company that sells "cut to size" screen protectors, order one that is 95.3x151.9mm... this will fit perfectly within the screen cutout.

If the screen protector you're referring to is a *screen-only* protector (meaning it doesn't cover the entire surface of the front), then you'll be fine to apply the skin over it, you may just notice a small ridge where the skin overlaps the protector.
