I got one too, a little earlier than that. Did you get Apple's Pro keyboard? I looked at it and selected Logitech's keyboard instead. It's a little less expensiveat $149 compared to Apple's $169 and, for me, has a better keystroke, and seemed to be better built. The screen is gorgeous.
I bought the Logitech, the case of which must be ballistic nylon, it is very strong. However I then also got the Apple Pro and haven't used the logitech since. It is not backlit, and lacks a few of the keys, but it is so thin and convenient, and protects the screen, and I got a thin leatherish sleeve for the whole thing together. The 3 rare earth magnets are so strong the pro keyboard stays on snug.
the screen is gorgeous indeed, and the iPP is FAST. I didn't realize my son had 10 games open in the backgroound while I had Chrome with 12 tabs, and the thing still FLEW, and with only 4GB. My Windows 10 laptop would choke to death with that load at 8GB.
