I would be concerned with the lack of wifi as the diagram shows. Other than that the board would be great for rolling out DIY hand held units with a LVDS connector. Why not replace the DVI out with LVDS for LCD connections or are more people using the DSI connector now?
there are so many possible combinations of LVDS that can be implemented, we were thinking it would be best to just leave it open to as much customization as possible by the end user.....

Chalkboard electronics already has a decent board for that anyway at a reasonable cost. The need for a second screen header is somewhat unnecessary when looking at portable electronics.
But if you want small and limited space why not use the Variscite board:

Mostly anthing is fine, but leaving even the rj45 for ethernet out is bummer... if there's three plugs that have to be there, then its power, sd, ethernet.

That sounds like the possible way to go.. make it at least compatible with a standard jack $AVERAGEJOE can get for a $LITTLECASH, otherwise it would render ethernet mostly worthless IMHO - at least for the targeted audience.
It would make my FPGA board easier to plug in, since I screwed up and did not mirror-reverse the expansion-header pins for mounting on the underside of the Panda. (It mounts on the top and needs a long header extender to clear the RJ45/dual-USB connector.) OTOH, I have a working solution now, so I wouldn't buy one, and there hasn't exactly been a deluge of interest for the FPGA board.
