And who the heck are Syncreon?

They're notorious for very late deliveries, items sat in Germany for weeks on the way to the UK. I've heard horror stories of smashed products. Apparently they employ all the people sacked from other couriers for tampering with, and stealing, packages.

Alternatively I've never heard of them.
 
possibly...but i suggest to hold your horses till the actual product comes to hand. If you have a case from the ipad 2, use that and see the difference and then make your choice. Some case retailers are most likely just gonna rename their current cases to say "ipad 3 or ipad 3rd generation compatible" without actually changing anything.
 
yeah it's showing on the parcel tracking and i've used a screen protector on the ipad 2...not so hard just needs a steady hand and a good eye and a dust free environment (vital)

Does anyone/will anyone be using a screen protector on their ipad? My gut feel is it will be very hard to fit as its such a big screen...

I will be. On the original iPad it took me 5 protectors to get it right. On the iPad 2 I took 3 attempts. I have a pack of 6 for the new one.

All prepared. I'm no expert at putting these on but I've got pretty good at it. I want this one to be perfect though. Most of my problems are in the corners (bottom right or top right normally), but because I will be using a case which doesn't cover the bezel I want it perfect.

Will be putting effort into it, turning on the hot shower and then doing it in the bathroom.
 
Argh, whenever I check the order page my eyes always go straight to dispatched rather than the processing item on the left and then where it says march 29th the other side of dispatched :(
 
Ok, i've ordered a pack of 6 screen protectors.. better safe than sorry... i will do the same with the hot shower and do it in the bathroom.. i've done it on phones before so should be ok.. still yet to order a case.. but will probably do that once i get the ipad and am happy with it... a screen protector at least should offer some protection around the house..

:o I got some of these for my 4s, God I was awful at them, wasted so many of them, girlfriend was far better at them. Interesting about the hot shower though.
 
Yeah the hot shower method stops dust floating around in the air... means you can fit it and hopefully not get any dust landing on the screen or getting attracted to the protector as they can create static when applying... i also find applying the screen protector naked prevents any lint from my clothes messing up the application... but maybe this is a step too far? :-)

Not the ones you want to waste either... £15 for the pack. They also have another version which only the bezzel is sticky and it also has a colour. Apparently a lot easier to install and not mess up, only get 1 in a packet though.

bad news for 4g lte expecting customers...even if 4g is rolled out in the UK or elsewhere outside the US or canada...the ipad will only work on 3g.

I'll survive on 3G.. This also probably means the iphone 5 4G will also be limited to 3G outside the US... not Apple's fault... the UK for one is years behind other countires in terms of Broadband speed and now wireless bands as well it seems...
