I've been working on BicycleCompanion lately, and I'm close to ordering components to build a first prototype. With any luck, I will have something done for the HackadayPrize. I decided to order the basic parts to make a BlackBerry 9900 Trackpad module as well, now that I finally found a (supposedly) suitable connector. I'm thinking about a breakout that can be placed in the middle of a protoboard, but using castellated pads which would allow for soldering on top of pcb directly.
What do you think?

PS: any help via KoFi is highly appreciated, it really helps me buy components and order PCBs for these projects. It goes without saying that I intend to publish the designs as open-source.
