Maybe it would be more productive to join forces? My project for it is quite advanced. Coincidentally, access to 3D scanner is the thing I'm currently lacking, and it was slowing down progress quite a much (needed to re-design everything manually).

I have been following your project from the beginning and am aware that you were measuring the device up. One of the first thing I was going to do is share the scanned images with you

But my first design is different than yours. I am trying to make one with keyboard below screen, thinner device with place for 2 batteries side by side.

I'll probably also make one normal, just like N900, but with lesser volume and maybe full USB.

No not necessarily. I'll have a cutout with plastic at the place of antennae, just like iPad.

I don't have a preview yet. I'll start next week. This week I still have exams
But I do need a device first to be scanned in! I use my own as a daily driver.
