Android Question Splash Activity

[woniol]

Hi,
I'm going to show a splash screen in my app, where I could display a login panel, call a web service and get data from gps.
After that i want my 'program activity' to be shown.

My question is:

Should the splash activity be the Main activity and then Start 'program activity'?
How to handle the back key, cause i do not want to return to Splash after a back button press by user from 'program activity'

I think that it is better to use a different activity for this. It will be simpler.
