the body movable through application of force by a user;
the magnet positioned with the body, the magnet emanating a magnetic field distribution that extends into an ambient environment proximate to the human interface device;
the 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:
