Oh, and I see no point in 4:3 screens when absoulutely everything else is 16:9 or something similar.

Really? If it already does have both board space and traces for a 3G/LTE modem I absolutely would want it populated!
How much more would it cost?

... and as I understand this only works without any modification of the board. A radio module is a modification without any support by the OS. If it does not work (e. g. high frequency influences to other components) you will go into the same desaster as Jolla did. Every modification makes the device more expensive, it will last more time for shipping and will frustrate more people.

And if it turns out adding a modem is not impossible, it can see it being done as a second production run or something similar.
