Yep, it's final design. I'm not sure what "hole" you mean (the oval thing under kickstand isn't hole, it is, actually, pretty polished place for inserting your finger[nail] to open kickstand), while camera "hole" have, of course, retractable cover.

As for kickstand shape, the 1st priority of this project is functionality, with aesthetic going as far as it doesn't hinder the former. Giving kickstand a fancy shape would weaken it, no to mention that I don't see the point of having spiral kickstand, or whatsnot... In fact, I see it as counter-productive. Probably, it's the reason, why I don't have *design* anywhere in job title

The alu backcover kickstand is complete opposition of nicely "designed", but completely unusable, vanilla N900's kickstand. New leg have corrected angle (when you lay your N900 on desk with it extended, it doesn't face sky anymore), device stand sturdily even when you write on it while it sits on desk, etc. That was the point of new kickstand. Ideally, I would replicate N8**'s kickstand that everyone loves, but it is not possible/feasible for backcover, flat or fat. High chance of implementing it in whole body replacement.

Anyway, as mentioned many times, all files are on gitorious, so if you can design something better and make machinable g-codes out of it, just "fork" and send a pull request. Every contribution will be dully considered (and if sensible, talked here).
