When it arrives new is there a protective film on the back that could be left on whilst in use until I get something proper.
This will be my first iPad ever and I want to protect it with a case\cover.
Will be looking for something minimalist so that it doesn't interfere with the size, neatness, balance of the device.
At the moment my thought is a gel or skin to cover the back/sides and a smart cover for the front. So in use I could remove the smart cover and it would practically be a nude iPad.
Smart covers aren't a problem - the iPad 2 ones are the same.
But I assume that anything else could be different because the new iPad is thicker (by a little bit) and may have different size\position ports\holes\camera lens.
So if I buy one now I'm worried that the back might get scratched whilst I'm waiting for rear protectors to become available. If there is a shipping film that could be left on for the time being that would be fine.
Cheers,
Nigel
