Why would you design an accessibility product and then release it "for a limited time"? And at $70 USD? Typical Apple.

"Limited edition" does that mean the color is limited edition? Are they really pressuring people with disabilities into buying a $70 accessory by making it limited edition?

Real accessibility would be release the open sourced file to 3d print these.

I'm surprised there is not something already, but it is a pretty simple design overall. Only tricky part would be making space for the magnets
