I’m not exactly sure that with a screen the size of the iPad, a screen protector is logical. This device will most likely be put in laptop compartments in backpacks or suitcases, where it will be isolated from keys and loose change, unlike the iPhone. Also Apple recently made a decision to discontinue screen protectors from their stores….. I’m sure there will still be people who will insist on applying one however.

The case with the rotating handle looks pretty interesting. There’s NO info on the Ozaki web site.
I was debating whether or not to use a screen protector, but since I plan to use my iPad as an around-the-house-get-me-AWAY-from-my-Mac kind of device, I doubt I’ll need it. Who knows, i may find myself taking it places with me, in which case, I’d get a screen protector.
