They could be wrong of course. I would have avoided the use of magnets for physically securing the unit. If they were in the base it would still require extra metal and weight in the unit. More bulk isn't a positive quality in this type of device.

Anyway, I really think the press salivating over this thing need a serious reality check. If they sell 1/100th of the units Apple is moving I'd be absolutely amazed. If they sold 1/1000th I wouldn't be surprised at all.
