Has anyone got one of these on their trackpad?

www.skinstyler.com

I've just got mine and tried applying it to my MacBook's pad, but even though it says it's meant to increase the sensitivity and make the trackpad easier to use, it makes mine worse to use. Parts of it won't register my finger on the trackpad, and it can make the cursor jump around the screen and randomly click thinking I've tapped it.

I've not seen any bad reviews, so I'm wondering if I've done something wrong when applying it.

They have a money back guarantee, but I really like the protector, and would be great if it worked on my trackpad.

After viewing some review from youtube and I decided to get one. I just got mine today and I must say it is flawless as advertised.

Don't do it. It takes forever to deliver (from Hong Kong) and their site is super confusing. Just wasted $10 on what I thought was the right product. P.S. Don't confuse "MacBook Pro" with the current MacBook Pro. They really mean the old MacBook Pro. WTH.

Back to my old 2.2GHz C2D MB after selling my MBP and wondering what my next Mac will be :)

Yeah, but this thread is still a top search result for "skin styler trackpad" on Google.

For what it's worth, the customer rep admitted that the website is confusing and they're changing it. They also offered to send me the right one for free so that was very cool. The thing is, I tried (the wrong sized) one out and I totally agree with matty-j: The sensitivity is definitely affected for the worse, especially for "touch clicking."
