Sound incredible !

I like the word "simply" in this sentence

> i will simply be able to recreate the baseboard with the new 4G module, a microcontroller, and some audio processing and power management circuitry and it will be able to seamlessly fit inside the phone.

Seems like a bigger project than the author would let us think ! But I hope to see the PCB soon !

I still have it, haven't put it together yet. I've heard it doesn't actually work with carriers.
