was more thinking that itΒ΄s a more relaiable source with a MOLEX connector that you can buy in a lot of different places, with short delivery lead time.
I will order some from Mouser to test with.
Looked a the USB-PCB from my crashed phone, if I could reuse that PCB to prepare it for a fast swap. But that PCB is quite bent, so I doubt it will work.

On my Pro1, all keys are intact but all of them are shiny.
When I was holding a less-used Pro1 in my hands, I was wondering it was originally matte - it looked a bit strange for me at first. π
it was issues getting them off, might be a bigger issue putting them back though π
I i belive the keys on a gamer keyboard is pushed a little bit more frequent than the keys on my phone π
Paint on gamer RGB keycaps doesn't last long and these will be hit by fingernails more often so chipping will surely be even worse. Maybe you could doubleshot with a burnably thin layer of black over transparent? Or depending how the keys work maybe you could paint and laser the legends on the back?
I was considering chopping up my keyboard to create something as close to the ISO-Colemak layout I've been using in Sailfish for years but your idea is better π€£
