Claim 0:
1. A human interface device, comprising:
a body movable through application of force by a user;
a magnet positioned with the body, the magnet emanating a magnetic field distribution that extends into an ambient environment proximate to the human interface device;
a magnet coat that is disposed within the human interface device and that covers the magnet;
a button; and
a mechanical linkage adapted to:
receive a force from the button;
in a first instance of the force that falls below a threshold:
retain a first position of the magnet within the body; and

in a second instance of the force that exceeds the threshold:
accelerate the magnet in a first direction to move the magnet to a second position within the body; and
after the force is reduced, return the magnet to the first position.
