Interesting. I wonder what the high standard hang up was for apple then? It's an older technology (Qi), or I wonder if the hardware team was pulled off of new products to go back and fix the keyboards they are still having issues? Or maybe it was wasnt going to sell at a price point to bring in enough margin?

They were trying to use multiple overlapping "3D" charging coils so you could place multiple devices in any orientation, but supposedly it was causing overheating issues

Its not true. Apple Watches dont use Qi charging so that was at least one hurdle.
