A set of standard rechargable AA batteries lasts for many weeks on Apple keyboards/mice/trackpads.

It seems crazy to me to spend $150 on this weird contraption..

My Magic Mouse lasts about 1.5-2 weeks so induction charging would be useful. That said, the induction contact for Apple Keyboard is rather ungainly.
 
Only reason I want one is the green glowing plasma. To bad it's photoshopped.

Inductive charging docks have to be the least green way to charge anything.

Why not just replace the bottom of a Magic Mouse with a small solar cell and let it trickle charge when upside down. Same with the keyboard.
