Don't worry, even if you wouldn't manage to notice it on your own, I planned to ping you about progress, after posting photos with kickstand and camera cover. No way you could miss it, i know first hand how much you're interested about the project

?! Either you're wrong on this one, or I used some really poorly phrased sentence. No, it was never considered, not to mention that I'm unsure how such thing would be even possible (unless done on purpose, via some hardware switch to antenna, as artificially introduced limitation). I was afraid that it might be impossible to get all radios on acceptable (=no worse, possibly better) performance, while using whole aluminum body, and that emergency measure, in case everything else fails, could be to use some really good quality (probably exotic) wood.

Anyway, fear not, I would never allow myself to introduce such thing, the purpose of repl. body project is to increase N900/Neo900 potential, not hinder it in any way (except for weight, for sure it will weight a little more with alu body)

Now, I don't think how to even comment on that you're single biggest donor up to date, and without your early support for the project, it would take <insert sadly high number here> more time to get into this state. Of course, I appreciate all donations and support - only combined effort of community supporters made this possible, period. But unless you win on some high-pool lottery, you're officially banned from donating more :d

Seriously though, again, huge thanks. I'll make sure to not disappoint.
