Hi.
Giles, your criticism is constructive and good so it leads to better
device development. But there are some points that I don't agree.

Port layout seemingly done at random, poor layout. USB/power connector better
at bottom of device.
No chance since there are antennas on both sides of device.
This isn't strictly required.
As I see it, with minimal case redesign only.

Shift GPS ceramic antenna 'back' by 5mm or so.
Redesign the mainboard to extend up to the top of the case on that side,
past the GPS antenna.
Mount a right-angle mini-B connector there.
