Radek's pioneering work is not yet a complete replacement for a GTA02 case.

These parts are missing:
* very important: GSM/UMTS antenna (we have an idea for a substitute but never tried)
* battery (there is a Nokia replacement)
* earpiece speaker, mono/stereo handsfree speakers (i.e. Headset sound only)
* vibracall motor (may be not that important)
* internal GPS antenna (external should work through a hole in the case)
* Power and Aux buttons (mechanical parts)

So what you can currently expect is a OMAP powered PDA. WLAN/Bluetooth networking
should work.
