People who want to hide magnets, why not just getting a thinner design and sticking a 0.75 mm lastucase plate (or anything else) on it? Sure it would require an extra purchase, or perhaps Dirk could manage an arrangement with Lastucase to get two different plates (one full size to "cover" the whole part, one with holes for the magnets to be embedded in the plastic case, hence thinner keyboard part), but I'm not sure he can do that. It would allow everybody to have the final result they want, and everybody would benefit a thinner design (0.15 and 0.9 mm gains, respectively).

Do you have tohkbd1? The level of awkwardness of a Jolla dramatically differs from the level of awkwardness of a Jolla with a custom-made and relatively large keyboard. A Jolla is not more awkward than a N900, and I think nobody had trouble using a N900 in public. Using a tohkbd is really different, so the thinner the better.

That's for sure, but it basically ruins the purpose of tohkbd2 if the only way to make it less conspicuous is to detach it.

I've owned a N900 too and its form factor really makes thickness acceptable. It fits better in jean's pockets than a Jolla without custom OH. They are really different in size, and a 16 mm Jolla is really a lot bulkier than a 18 mm N900.



(I do prefer the N900 form factor by the way, much easier to use, carry and manipulate in my opinion, too bad smartphones' screens are getting larger and larger.)
