Yes a Beagle Board and their mechanical mounting system is worth looking at and emulating. They made a larger PCB with pins that mate withe the BB and then turn the BB upside down and pushed it into their PCB. Kind of like treating the BB has a very large chip placed in a socket. I've built these larger PCBs using perf board and hand soldering. If you are building your own then you don't need so many cables and you gain some reliability. It's a good way to break out the GPOI pins and add onto isolators and whatever else you might need. Point to point wire, hand soldered works.
