My Magic Trackpad 2.0 (Space Grey) arrived yesterday - been using the iPad 12.9” with it. It’s pretty amazing - makes the iPad adaptable in so many ways. When the Microsoft Office programs get full support, it will be even better. I am working from home right now, and the ability to use multiple screens (MacBook Pro, iPad) with a variety of input methods (trackpads, mouse, etc) is super useful. I may get an additional iPad Pro 11” for travel (along with the new keyboard case), but for right now, I am really liking the regular keyboard folio + trackpad for home use
Got a tip for us?

Agreed, set my magic trackpad 2 and new 12.9 and it works perfectly even on the sofa. I have the trackpad in front of the keyboard on my lap and works great...obviously I will be getting the magic keyboard but for now? This. Combo works great...
I will still likely use my Magic Trackpad 2 at work on a desk even with magic keyboard but for home use this work amazing even when it’s just on your lap. Love how you can use this as a laptop and then I can just take it off the Smart Keyboard and use as a tablet if I wish....best of both worlds really.

It seems like Outlook supports it a bit - but Word, Excel, etc show no signs yet
