FYI -
You probably are way ahead of me on this issue, but it used to be that a few of us had to use the Fellowes' NR70 WriteRight screen protectors because they were what was available.
They were a little short as the NR's screen IS shorter... But then I consider ALL of them short.
One could use the Genio e550G version and cut them down... OR if you are really savy you could make some from something like "window" tape from the local Home Depot.
I just noticed that Fellowes' has one specifically for the NZ. As I expected it is a little short but less so... and entirely covers more than the viewable area.
Are there bigger ones that are "just right" out there?

You could try the Brando Screen Protector specifically designed for NZ90. It can be purchased here at Global Source. :)

The nushield screen protectors are a perfect fit! www.nushield.com

Thanks for the comments. I will probably try them.
The specifically designed "Fellowes" ones are likely as "perfect". I just don't like the little bit of dark screen >1/16 of an inch around the edge uncovered.
(Yeah... well... I am a picky geek/nerd type person. )

Nushields slip under the edge that surrounds the screen - they are not the stick on type. And there are no gaps on either side, top, or bottom.

WriteShields from Pocketpctechs.com is the best screen protector! No sticky residue and doesn't change the feel of the stylus on the screen. What's more...it's re-usable! Kinda pricey though.

I think I have tried every damn screen protector on the market. Have had everything from super sticky to the nasty ones you have to try and force under the edge of the screen. I always seem to come back to the Brando. Very simple to install and outlast them all. I've said it before and I'll say it again. Brando is the best in my humble opinion.

Just to clarify,
I guess you mean the ones at :

or also at:

?
Thanks "stumper" or "NXOwner" for the info, even if it might be repeating for you.

Well, for my N760C, I used the G2 protector and was quite pleased.
But, for my NZ, I decided to go a little cheap for starters. I got a plain old plastic transparency and cut it to the right shape. I forced it under the frame and it has been working fine for a week now.
I'm not sure it will last, however, as I am starting to see scratches on the film. We'll see how it looks after two months.
But, of course, it only costs about 3 cents to make a new one if it looks particularly bad at that time.

The G2 was kinda hard to install. So, I gave up on that. Used the Fellowes and Nushields but have been using WriteShields for the last couple of years.
Sony has a screen protector (online store) that is designed to fit the nz90 screen. I got it a couple of weeks ago and it has a slightly sticky side that comes in contact with the screen. I accidentaly dropped the protector on my carpet and it came up with lint and other stuff. It's indicated that you can wash these screen protectors (Sony) but I ended up smudging it more with fingerprints and soap film.
Had anyone had this problem either with the sony screen protectors or others that have a sticky side to them.
Any help appreciated.

If there's a G2 for your model, I really think you'd like them. I have one on my 665 and it mimmicks the OEM screen. I'm very impressed with G2.
