iPP Smart Cover for desk use?

[Tron72]

I'm awaiting another sale to buy the 12.9 iPP and while waiting I'm trying to determine which case to buy. I have the Smart Case on my Mini which is perfect but Apple apparently decided to low-ball our case options for their Pro models even though logically they should have the best of all. But I do know I want a Smart Cover at the very least since it's somewhat protective of the screen and thinner than the iPP back cover. I plan on drawing a lot on this though and it will be on a desk/table quite often so I was wondering would simply folding the Smart Cover all the way flat to the back be sufficient enough to protect the back from scratches while on a surface? Or does it pop off easily and/or slide around too much?

It should work. And the magnets stick nicely to the rear case when flipped, no sliding around here.

After you get your iPP, and as you will be drawing a lot, you might take a look at this Twelve South ParcSlope stand. It's definitely not a necessity, but it's really really nice.

ouch that's carpal tunnel city right there. at least for me. I find that having the keyboard tilt away from me to be the most comfortable.

It's not for typing (I use the Smart Keyboard), it's for drawing. Perfect amount of slope.

Thanks for the feedback so far. Good to know the smart cover attaches to the back as well. As for Twelve South's ParcSlope, that would be too much of an incline for my drawing style if I'm working at a desk. I will probably purchase something like this desk pad for extra protection while working on a desk: http://www.amazon.com/Satechi®-Resi...F8&qid=1462146846&sr=8-2&keywords=satechi+pad

I understand. But the original use for that stand is for a notebook. That what I was commenting about. Sorry that I was obtuse in my comment.
