this will come for sure i think, but be prepared for over 300 bucks then
I was in a Store yesterday for unrelated reasons - I asked and was told all of the Stores and most authorized resellers in the US should have ample stock on June 12. Cheers!
daskeyboard for me. An older version with the Cherry MX switches, Noisy, and tactile, and a num pad. I will hold onto this one as long as I can. I never did care for the Apple keyboard's switches, wireless or wired.
After watching the keynote and seeing the full sized magic key board in the photo of the iMac Pro coming soon, I found the new keyboard ready to buy on the Apple website. It took me all of 2 seconds to order it and I'm now using it for this post and it's Awesome!!!! Been waiting years for them to make it happen and all my other keyboards are in the closet.
I have to retrain my hands because they can spread out from being cramped on the old magic keyboard. It's so awesome.

I did like keynote very much, but i have to agree, £130 for keyboard is to much. Thats £90 more than wired version and no usb ports.
I'll keep my eyes peeled for keyboards similar to these
Apple today released a wireless Magic Keyboard with Numeric Keypad priced at $129 in the United States. The wired version has been discontinued.
The keyboard features an extended layout with a numeric keypad, document navigation controls for quick scrolling, and full-size arrow keys for gaming.
Like the traditional Magic Keyboard, the Numeric Keypad version has a Lightning port with a built-in, rechargeable battery that lasts a month or more between charges.
Apple says a Bluetooth-enabled Mac with macOS 10.12.4 or later, or iOS devices with iOS 10.3 or later, is required.
The keyboard is currently available for delivery as early as June 8 in the United States. Pricing and availability varies in other countries.

I have been waiting for a wireless version of this keyboard and I am happy that it is finally available. I just saw it on the Apple website yesterday when I was checking to see if my local Apple Store had the Magic Mouse 2 in stock. I needed to replace my almost 7 year old Magic Mouse and decided to get the new one. I saw the keyboard and went to the store to pick up with the mouse and got the newer trackpad as well. Great having a Keyboard with the numeric keyboard again.
