Can this be used with the twelve south magic wand?

AnswerFrom what I have seen and read on the Twelve South Magic Wand, is just a plastic piece that will hold the keyboard and the magic trackpad together. I don't see why it wouldn't work with the magic track pad. It would not interfere with the placement or function.

is film removable/switchable/fixed
Is the film a 'permanent' fixture or can you switch them around as you wish?
i.e. Once fitted to the track pad is that it?- Asked by David F

AnswerNo you can change the film whenever you want. Remember to change the selected film in the numpad menu on the icon bar, otherwise the software will not work properly.

can you still use the trackpad itself? like once you apple the film is it still a smooth surface where you can still use it as a trackpad?

Best AnswerThat "easily switch" thing is no longer current. The Mobee software only switches to trackpad mode - it won't go back to numpad (although you can use F6 on the keyboard). I use BetterTouchTool to toggle between trackpad and numpad modes - among many other gestures I have assigned to it (and also to my Magic Mouse and the keyboard - it's magnificent).
But the answer is yes, the Apple commands are active even when you have numpad mode turned on. The reason is that you have to tap and immediately release a number on the 10-key for it to interpret it as a numeric entry.
However, you'll probably want to use the mode in which just under half the trackpad is a regular mouse area if you're going to use the trackpad normally. Note that it doesn't matter which of the three overlays you put on the trackpad - the mode is switched in the Mobee software.- Answered by Nick B from Sherman Oaks

Will this work if applied to the trackpad on the MacBook Pro, or only on the Magic Trackpad itself?
- Asked by Keli J from Kansas City

AnswerNo unfortunately not, it only works with the magic trackpad because of the size of the films and the software is only designed for the magic trackpad and not the trackpad on the MacBook.
