Hey all, as I'm working on my PPA until Wednesday (deadline, accountability partner)
Have the question, whether to file both the PPA and a design patent to have the DP as a backup if the reviewer would abandon the PPA.
So I would have at least the design patent which would save the look of my invention since there are a bunch of similar patents around which are not exactly my invention, which is better in functionality.

Is this a wise strategy?

Thanks for your help!
Hannes
