I ordered this, got an email saying it was going to deliver in early December, and then it arrived two days ago. YMMVAnd shipping has slipped to 1-3 months on some critical dongles...
It just works! In the Spring! Merry Christmas!

A price drop on the new MacBook Pro itself would have been a great way to help people move to the latest technology and peripherals, as well as accelerate the growth of this new ecosystem.
I'm cackling!!!!! That gave me a much needed laugh. It's so true though.This is good news for all those that buy a portable device and then want to chain it down and connect a million things to it. Hurray!!!

Sorry, but if your not using wireless by now, i have no sympathy for you. DO you also wash your dishes by hand instead of using a device called a dishwasher?? LOL![]()
There has been an awful lot of whining on these forums lately (some justified), but you can't deny that this is a nice move by Apple. It's very unusual for them to adjust prices outside of product introductions, so clearly they're responding to feedback. Good show!
you should check the technical aspect of it....if you got time.
Some connectors can disable wi-fi.
For someone who feels so strongly negative about their products you sure are posting here a lot recently.
Well, the price is ridiculous only in case of Apple.This is not Apple like. I wonder if they are not getting the expected MBP sales and the dongle price reduction is just an experiment to see if it increases MBP sales. I had my heart set on getting a new MBP but the price is just ridiculous. Looks like computers are becoming a niche product which may mean prices will never come down. Hopefully they allow iPads to be used for software development someday.

While I agree that this laptop is less Pro and should be called MacBookDongle, this is what happens in the transition zone. Apple is going from ports to everything USB C. That was their call, and this is what the next few years looks like.

Does anyone else feel like it's complete bull crap that that Apple embraces USB-C on macs, but still forces lightning port on the phones when the standard for all new phones is in fact, USB-C.
