Hi all, I am going to order an iPad tonight. What are some of the best accessories that you have found? How is the screen with scratches? Does the back of it scratch up like the iPod touch does? Also if any of you have ordered it from Apple in the US, it says 7 to 10 days for shipping, does it really take that long?

All of you Americans, Happy independence day!

    I ordered the black case with the flip cover from the Apple site with mine which has kept it perfectly safe as well as act as a little stand or ramp when placed on a table.
    Also I got a wall charger for fast charging around the house. Other than that I've really not needed anything else. Maybe something to wipe the screen with once in a while.
    It's awesome - you're gonna love it!
    Pity it takes so long to arrive but they are shipped from China.

    Wow, China?! Well I guess that makes sense, because they are in such high demand!

    Phone up your local store and reserve one, I only had to wait a couple of days, they get them in all the time. You are in the UK ?

    Ps the camera kits are in crazy short supply but have reported great USB potential!!

    I recommend the same Apple flip case that MikeQuinn suggested. I also have the wireless bluetooth keyboard which is nice for typing.

    I do NOT recommend getting the iPad dockable keyboard. You can only use it in one direction, and it doesn't work well with the Apple flip case.

    When I got my iPad I looked at the case and I found it on bay for £10 for the same Apple one. I also have the keyboard stand and it's perfect for light office work via office 2 HD app.

    I have had no scratches or problems just the screen get dirty with fingerprints very easy.
