The headline pretty much says it all – does anyone know whether there will be third party Magsafe 3 cables and if there will, when? I like Magsafe a lot but the premium Apple puts on its cable is really painful. I wouldn't even need fast charging, which would probably allow for using a cheaper cable if there will be one.

Unlikely. I don’t think there were any third party MagSafe in its prior incarnations were there?

Yeah, the price they charge for this is up there with the premium for the Mac Pro Wheels. Is it braided with unicorn blood or something?

I don't think its outside of the realm of possibility, but it would require them to pay apple a licensing fee
