With the extra usb port the mini port would remain unused and allow for either charging in auto-detected fast charge mode or an additional host, right? I thought it would be more elegant if the neo itself would distribute power from some extrernal supply to itself and the usb device; additionally i usually dont't carry that adapter around, whereas the usb jack would be built-in (now again, is this a standard usb host the bt module is connected to?) I believe pulster and trisoft carry spare displays here in germany, i'll look into getting one from them.
