Magsafe is a really great idea, it's just a shame Apple came up with it first and I can't wait for it to be the universal standard for all types of external connectors forevermore. It's as close as we can get to wireless without being wireless.

Interestingly, Apple has donated the phone version of MagSafe to the Qi open wireless charging standard. Soon we’ll see a magnetically aligning wireless charging Qi2 devices from other manufacturers.
