Anyone else having this issue? Press key -> light turns on -> press power button to turn off screen on iPad -> keyboard light stays on forever.
 
I don‘t have this particular problem but I noticed that the magic keyboard has a lot of bugs. Usually it helps if you disconnect it from the iPad for a second.
 
I'm having the same issue. Most of the time it works. But occasionally the keyboard doesn't light up - or even sometimes doesn't switch off.

In a weird way - at least with a number of us having this issue it hopefully means it is something they will have to fix.

I keep on saying I love my IPP and I love the MK. But, if a MacBook came out with these issues I think some of us would be less forgiving.

I'm not trolling my friends. I've owned Apple computers since the //e as well as the first Mac and beyond. I'm just perplexed at the number of MK issues that are popping up. I guess I'll ride it out. But, I think I'll be eyeing up a MacBook for my next big computer purchase before transitioning to a future iPad.

After using it I can say the MK extremely overpriced. Its at least $150 to much. I mean it literally took 1 day for it to look horrible due to prints and stuff because of the cheap material used.
 

Whoa, look at X-Rays of the MK!

Thats pretty cool and tells me with a little more work we should had been able to use the bottom hinge (where the usb-c port is) to store the pencil :/
