My friend made the same mistake attempting to put a screen protector on top of the one that comes with the n800, he had the same bubble issue but was able to remove both screens and reapply another new skin. I personally still use the original its about 2 months in pretty scratched up but usuable.

Also note, the pack comes in twos because they are certain that you will screw the first one up. You only get one chance to put a screen protector on and if you mess it up then you may as well move on to the next one. No visable dust is acceptable, it will leave a bubble so be careful.
When I tried a trimmed PSP protector, my D-pad and menu buttons stopped working. I threw the things away and bought a 3-pack for the 770/N800 from a German supplier. Four months later, the first one is still on my screen, scratchless.

I also have another reservation against using a PSP protector: The PSP doesn't have a touchscreen, so obviously any screen protector manufacturer for the PSP doesn't have to take that into account. I really cannot understand how people can so feel at ease with one of those things on their screen. It's to me like throwing diesel into a gasoline engine and claiming: "Don't worry! It worked in the truck!"
