Does the 7100 forfeit a monitor cover?

I don't think there is one. It's not in that detailed list of things that come with the camera and I don't see any hint of a groove for it on the bottom of the camera.

The one thing that crosses my mind about a lack of it is reselling - dents and dings on a screen could be an issue whereas it's always been easy to replace the old one with a new one before selling.

(Yes I know it's not even out yet and I'm talking about selling it but still....:)
