All you have to do is require something beyond navigational information to keep the casual scanner out.

This sounds nice in theory, but in practice there's pretty much nothing you can do. This is due to the technical limitations of the browser and the HTTP protocol. There just isn't any hidden magic available that can secure the data so that only the target iPad can work with it.

As others have said, the best thing would have been to simply save your email address in a cookie. This wouldn't help the first time you visited the page, but it would for every visit after that, and it wouldn't just be limited to iPad users.
