Is the Apple Smart Cover for the first gen (non-retina) mini the same as the one now being sold for the retina mini? Sorry if this has already been answered, but the search function is down.

I asked in another thread and some helpful person said the old cover will fit the new retina. :)

The compatibility section on the new cover also says it fits the original mini, so I guess it works the other way around?
 
My $9 Poetic case/cover from my Mini1 fits my Mini2 but doesn't seem very secure on the snap in corners. It will do until I get my $10 Poetic Mini2 case next week from Amazon. Hopefully it won't smell like rotting meat for 2 weeks like the first one did. I guess that's why they call the cheap cases "P.U." Leather aka vinyl.
