I took a WaveShare RP2040-Touch-LCD-1.28and made a program to use it as a touchscreen. This is still very much in the beta phase but the proof of concept works. Here’s my GitHub repo for it.

I’m planning on integrating it into my next split near the thumb cluster.

    Very cool indeed! I’d like to see the keyboard integration, once it’s ready. Are there enough free pins on this module to handle the GPIOs for a keyboard matrix?

      There are 6 GPIO available. So maybe a macro Pad… but my idea is do embed it in The case but still have a separate usb cable to it. You can also display things on the screen if you’d like. It has a RTC and a battery management circuit so you could make it into a clock, or use the GPIO to speak with your keyboard to send keystrokes data via serial…
