What is the maximum height? I couldn't find any mention of that in the article.

60 inches. I wish it were a little more since I'm 6'3", but it keeps it compact and lighter. And sturdy.

And it works. Set up my Apple Watch to have my Hop card in Wallet, just before going to the MAX station. Held my watch in front of the same terminal I usually hold my Hop card to, don't need to wake up the watch or iPhone. One less card.

I've had mine for a couple months now, being one of the original Kickstarter backers. Took it on a trip to Maui this winter. By far the best travel tripod I've used, it took up little space in my suitcase, used it with a Sony camera with large lens, and used the mobile mount to shoot a sunrise timelapse on the the summit of Haleakala. I've used the universal head adapter to put a fluid head on it as well. Not cheap, but worth every penny, like most PD gear.

I hope they make a short keyboard with black keys.

It's why I've held off replacing my 2009 Apple wireless keyboard and trackpad.
Hopefully the new keyboard will be backlit as well.
