Yep, the 12 x 12cm format sounds perfect. That way it can fit in any size case you want.
The option of the external connectors (VGA, Joystick, etc) on 'stand-off' ribbons cables is also a good idea, since then it would make it easier to fit nicely into larger cases.
But you want to keep it simple (like the EFIKA).
Is there any way we can have an online poll to make it easier to see what people would prefer (rather than wading through these replies)?
Also ready-assembled is much better. I don't see the point of a bare PCB (for the majority of potential customers...)
Maybe you could get the bloke in China to do the whole lot (PCB, assembly, etc.)? I'd say the current projected price is more than a bargain. If assembly of a complete product in China bumps the price up to say $US 100 I'm sure you'd still have LOADS of buyers.
Cheers,
Mike.
