I had sent over the preliminary drawing done by Hardcoder as well as a link to this thread for the my friend to see all of the suggestions and ideas that have been flowing forth. I thought I would share his responce to our progress to date:

Hi Ron,
This is really great!
I am excited to develop a premium case for this little wonder.
I could not open the file... I will have my designers tomorrow morning to take a look.
Thanks!

So it looks like all parties are excited and on track. I would also like to add, I was involved in another item that is about to be released by this company. It does not take very long at all once the specs are laid out and the features are decided on. So we should be able to see the fruits of our labor in about a 4-5 weeks. (I am giving myself safety room as well.)
