This is both for cases where you damage your neo in some manner
that is
clearly not covered by any warranty, and for the cases where you
might
like to use the Neo for something it is clearly not suited for
in its
existing case.
For example, glue a couple of webcams a USB hub, wifi, into a
waterproof
container, and do stuff with it.
+1 to this unbundled approach. Also maybe add "replacement
touchscreen" as this is probably #1 part most likely to get busted?
Another vote for the unbundled approach. A number of us hardware
types are
discussing various gadgets that would hack into the neo for CPU and
connectivity. A pity to waste a whole phone (and the $$s) if the
case and
screen is not needed.
Sean, how does this work from a certification point of view? Do you
have to
get the whole device certified? Can you sell the internal subframe
by itself,
with whatever certification is required? Is certification even an
issue since
that's all handled by the GSM/SIM interface which we have no
visibility into?
I'm not 100% sure. Let me look into this on Monday.
