Any plans on releasing a version that is not tied to the apple ecosystem? ("super/windows" vs "option", "command" vs "alt") Why are those not configurable, as well?

Are "fn" and "control" swappable?

The peripheral keys which were static in the old design was because we had to use an existing display. Making a custom E Ink display needs to be in at least 300k minimum order quantity and a $500k NRE so we had to wait until we had a mass production order; the current design has a new display which means all the keys are remappable.

It wasn't lazy design, just a compromise we had to make until we had the capital.
