Is that you, John Wayne? Is this me?

At the very least, I want a skin that goes on the back. I don't have the patience for something like the iCarbons, since you'd have to use a blowdryer to form the corners and I can already tell that will just drive me insane when I don't get it right.

I was thinking either this:

Or something like this:

http://www.spigen.com/tablets/apple/spigen-sgp-ipad-3-3g-wifi-skin-guard-series.html

Now the Karvt is real wood and apparently a bitch to take off on top of adding a fair bit of thickness. The Spigen ones are probably less of a hassle but I'm a sucker for wooden poo poo so I lean towards the Karvt.

The iPad will be moving between a folio case and a regular smart cover which is why I want to go the skin route, as it seems like it'd work with both. Does anyone use anything similar?

I have a carbon fiber back skin on my The New iPad (3rd gen) and it's pretty nice. The one downside is that it's more slick than the metal so it can slip out of your hand easier. I have no problems using it with a Smart Cover at all.

As far as screen protectors go, Spigen makes some of the best. You definitely can't go wrong with one of theirs.
