Libor Kubín I Iune 2009, ua loaʻa iā Apple kahi patent no ka trackpad, ʻaʻole i ʻike ʻia ma ka mākeke a hiki i kēia manawa. Ma ka lā 26 o Pepeluali, 2010, ua paʻi ʻia ka palapala noi hou loa no ka "Magic TrackPad."
Mai ia manawa, ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia nā kiʻi o ka mea pohihihi i nā manawa he nui, ʻo ke kumu o ia mea i kuhi wale ʻia. Server Engadget ʻōlelo ʻo ia e kākoʻo ana ka hāmeʻa 15cm i ka ʻike lima kākau a me nā hiʻohiʻona āpau o ka Magic Mouse (a me ka MacBook Pro trackpad paha).
Ua ʻae ʻo ia i ka hāmeʻa, ʻike ʻia e ka helu kumu hoʻohālike A1339 FCC (Mana Hoʻokaʻaʻike Federal) e hana. Ua ho'āʻo ʻia ka "Bluetooth trackpad" i ʻOkakopa i ka makahiki i hala a ua ʻōlelo ʻia ua mākaukau no ka hana nui. I ka hopena o kēia pule, hiki iā Apple ke hoʻolauna i ka polokalamu. ʻO kēia ke ʻano o ka hiki ʻana mai o nā noi mai ka App Store ma ka Mac a i ʻole e hoʻohana ʻia e hoʻāʻo i nā mea hoʻomohala multitouch? Pono mākou e kali no ka pane.
