Maybe now that it's called a "Magic Keyboard" they will sell it as a stand-alone product.

I usually put my laptop in front of me with an external screen above it. That way I get used to the laptop keyboard and can feel right at home in a conference room or wherever.

It's very unlikely, but I would like Apple to release the touchbar as a standalone piece of hardware (not attached to a keyboard at all). That way we could have the best of both worlds: physical function keys and a nifty touch device. Would be really useful for music/video editing

They already sell the Magic Keyboard, and I have one on my desk: https://www.apple.com/shop/product/MLA22LL/A/magic-keyboard-...

What is magic about it? It looks very basic.

The keys actually work.
