I've been having quite the "battle" with screen protectors for my Xoom.
First, I got the Skinomi (Amazon.com: Skinomi TechSkin - Screen Protector Shield for Motorola XOOM + LIFETIME REPLACEMENTS: Electronics) - I didn't know before I got it that I'd have to use a solution and let it cure before it looked OK. I got somewhat frustrated with it and took it on and off a few times. I read some more positive reviews and the company was a pleasure to deal with, so I actually ordered a fresh one. Only the fresh one came with nicks on the protector and dust between itself and the wax paper, so I'm waiting on a replacement there.
Then I got the Steinheil (SGP Motorola Xoom Screen Protector Steinheil Ultra Series - Motorola - Tablets) - I really liked the feel of it. The installation was really easy and it fit the screen a lot more closely than the Skinomi did. It shipped with a small crease in the upper right that just wouldn't work out that resulted in an air bubble and eventually drove me bonkers after a couple of days. It had a faint scratch on it as well but couldn't notice it after it was installed. I took it off and lost it so I guess I'm out on that one.
I have an order placed with Boxwave (Motorola XOOM ClearTouch Anti-Glare - Award winning anti-glare Motorola XOOM screen protector and enhancement) - However it said it would ship on the 14th but hasn't shipped yet. I have an email in to them but they haven't replied yet.
So as you could imagine, my Xoom's screen has been naked most of the time and it's totally fine. My g/f was using it in the kitchen to read a recipe and actually a glass fell and broke right on the front of it and it was 100% OK. I really want a protector to clean off fingerprints easier and for some anti-glare properties.
Which protector do you use?
