Thanks again--I think I'll be picking up one of these for my wife's keys, and possibly one or two of the wallet ones!
I am not sure what is the benefit of the Chipolo one spot or card spot. You still have to use Apple Find My app to locate it. It would be cool if it lets your use any browser and tap into Find My network, but that's not the case. It is about the same price as Airtag but less capable. The card spot is just extra plastic enclosure for the one spot right? Why not just go with AirTag?
