Default Anti-glare covers for Ipaq - Do they work?

I am very disappointed with the readability of my HP Ipaq in direct or
near-direct sunlight, although it was reviewed as being one of the
brightest. I switched to gradient sunglasses so that the bottom part does
not darken the screen so much. As someone else mentioned, the next step is
to mount it on a bracket that brings it closer... at a cost of $70-$100.

Grumble, grumble...

I've been using a borrowed Ipaq 3955 which is supposed to have one of the
best screens - actually it's crap unless the sun angle is just right. No
LCD screen is fully 'sunlight readable' unless it has a monster backlight
