There are a few screen protectors out there that are finger print reducing. I can't remember the name right off the bat, but I will do a little research real quick and see if I can post up a link.
Here you go, try one of these:

I've been using the Ultra Fine for 2 1/2 weeks now. Love them, no more fingerprints. The only residue I get on the Ultra Fine is after I'm done on a phone call. My skin is oilly, so I just wipe it after I get off the phone, but no fingerprints for sure.

Maybe before and after pictures of the screen too? I've read a lot about the anti-fingerprint protectors making the screen a little darker. Very interested though, I hate seeing them all over my screen all the time.

i finally just got the vzw protectors after a bunch of searching and stressing about it. they arent the cheapest but they go on easy and last pretty well. they arent anti-fingerprint,but now i dont feel guilty polishing the screen with my shirt sleeve

when you got it did you look through the protector, did you notice yours being little foggy? Cuz mine was foggy, but installed it anyways and did not like how my screen looked.

i dint like the idea of it being a "wet" install. i researched it quite a bit,and finally decided i was putting too much into it
the vzw ones are easy to get on with no bubbles. i seemed to have alot of prollems getting the cheap ebay ones to be bubble free. plus they seem a lil softer. my ipod looks like crap,i should prolly just take it off
same for the cheap ones i used on my env touch. id have to replace them often since they got so scratched up so fast.i wasnt going to bother,period... i havent even used them on my inc,my eris,or my D1 and those screens are still fine,they really are alot tougher than i gave them credit for. ultimately i couldnt stand to NOT use one cause this is the first actual brand new smartphone ive ever had.

I just tried replacing my Ultra Fine because I had one bubble in the corner, not even on the actual screen, lol, I couldn't get rid of, yes i'm nuts(possible undiagnosed OCD), totally screwed up the 2nd protector as well. So not using any at the moment.
However, just ordered another pair from Steinheil. Trying out the Ultra Oleophobic this time due to my oilly skin. Don't know how the fingerprints will be after the switch, but I'm constantly wipping the screen anyway because of the oil after I make a call. Will report back on the Oleo's after a couple days use when they get here. Hoping Monday or Tuesday as long as they ship Saturday's.

Been using the Utlra Oleophobic for 3 1/2 days now. Must say the screen is much clearer due to the fact they aren't matted like the others I had, but the fingerprints are just as bad as when there was no screen protection. My bite the bullet and buy another set of the Anti-Fingerprints very soon.

I have the ultra crystal clear on right now. It's nice, feels like there isn't a cover on there, but the finger prints and the glare when I'm outside is so bad. When I first put the screen on, I felt that it picked up more finger prints than without the protector screen. The glare is just horrible on this phone, I can barely see the screen when I'm outside. I have to put it up to my face just to read.
So I ended up ordering the Ultra Fine Screen a few weeks ago. Haven't put it on yet, I just really like the clear look. Not sure if I'm ready for the matted finish yet.

If I have the Ultra Fine's sitting at home again I'd put them on for sure. No fingerprints and with the matted finish, I think it was better outside if I remember correctly.
