I would rather have this on the top of a Mac mini so I can set my phone down on my Mac to charge. Even the base of the iMac stand could be convenient, wireless charging for the Magic Keyboard and Mouse wouldn’t be bad to go with that either.

Love this solution. Bake it into the iMac stand.

Depends the distance and whether it's isotropic or shaped (and to what extent).

So say I want to charge my phone 2 meters from the wireless charging source?

Is this efficient and reasonable?

would it negatively affect other electrical devices or present any hazards?

Don't know. Depends what kind of tricks Apple has been pursuing in R&D.

but that mans prices will increase

Apple's turning out once beloved Mac lineup into a Swiss-army knife of charging stations...You could charge any wireless device anytime, anywhere.. All that would be needed with ever product to support it..

I think i'm beginning to see why a power adapter is becoming less important.
