I read or watched someone talk about the esc key extending over to that blank area last week. Not sure where. Maybe it was Rene Ritchie on MacBreak Weekly. I think that is a good move, keeps the aesthetics symmetry but provides better function.
 
Hey guys, I just did some googling and found that appleinsider is stating the Apple stores are said to have some base model touch bar macbook pros starting on the 15th.

AppleInsider sources within Apple retail tell us that they aren't expecting "boosted" configurations of the MacBook Pro 13- and 15-inch with Touch Bar (including higher-end GPUs) in store at launch, but are expecting a few "baseline" models for customers to purchase on or around Nov. 15

This is fantastic news. I hope it's true.

Yup, very nice little nuance on Apple's part. But what I'm even more excited about is the fact that SOMEONE has a touch bar model in their possession right now! This can only mean that apple is going to start shipping out our computers soon!

Not trying to be rude or being smart about it, but next time, just order first and think second. You can cancel anytime and even if it got shipped, you can return for a full refund. Good luck.

No offense taken. That's generally my approach for all pre-orders, especially the first gen watch. Totally flew blind on that one. However, since this bad boy was a gift, I couldn't pull a preemptive purchase.

Maybe I'll be able to score one then! At least one of the gazillion Apple stores in my neck of the woods will have one.
 
Im hoping that there is another round of charges tonight and that we see some movement by Friday. Isn't too far of a long shot in my opinion.
