I'm still pondering if and how we could make them available. Idea: place them in one line at edge of upper board, so they are readily usable through the 2mm spacer frame, probably at the lower long side of device.

PS: on hindsight I wonder if the Eten Glofiish M800 knockoff of GTA02 - though with massively extended 'mech' - that I used for a while exploits the same chip. It has same display/digitizer like GTA02 but comes with 4 capacitive buttons (which usually been a PITA to use, btw)
