Re: New iMacs ?

[Daniel Kerr]

Yes, actually, I looked earlier after my post, and they’re not there anymore.
Perhaps I was just lucky enough to order some via a wholesaler to keep some. :) 
I think I’ll ensure to save one,…hehe :)
Though it’s not listed as EOL (End of Life)…so who would know at the moment.
Sorry about that. If you do need one (and are looking at a new iMac), then let 
me know as I can source them as well. :)

Kind regards
Daniel

 Hi folks.
 
 I have been awaiting the arrival of these.
 But I am a little dismayed that there is no wired keyboard option.
 I even checked in Apple accessories and they have been removed from there 
 too.
 
 I don’t really care for charging stuff when it can simply be plugged in.
 It’s not like the iMacs are portable.
 
 In fact I wish Apple would produce a wired Magic Mouse !

Thanks Daniel and Neil.
However I did check under “accessories” on the Apple website and they are no 
longer listed.
So it would seem cannot be bought even on their own.

Yes, that works too. :)
Though they don’t have USB ports on each side like a normal USB Keyboard. :)
(though they’re still only USB1.1 from memory on the ends…so kinda slow for 
most things).
Kind regards

Re: New iMacs ?

[Neil Houghton]

Well

Thinking laterally.


The new wireless keyboards are charged via the lightning port (rather than
like my old one with removable rechargeable batteries)  and, unlike the
mouse, it can still be used whilst charging...

So if you leave the keyboard plugged in haven¹t you got a wired keyboard
with battery back-up ??!!



Just a thought  ;o)



Cheers
