The Harite keyboards are another example you may like that feature 5-way switches.

Thanks for bringing that up! I like that it appears to have a more sane license, too

But, I'll be honest: from just the YouTube video it seems like those strong magnets make this much closer to what I'd want from a portable keyboard. I have very, very grave concerns about where I'd put my phone to keep it away from the magnets, but otherwise it seems right up my alley

Good point. Fortunately, the same magnets can screw into the back of the Harite v2. If you search for "1/4" mount magsafe" you'll find a lot of examples that are relatively low cost.

Here's someone using the same mounts, just not with the 5-way directional switch: https://www.reddit.com/r/ErgoMechKeyboards/comments/12dr3pb/...
