It looks nice, but just to ensure that everybody reading this realizes the obvious - the case is made of aluminium, so it shields from radiowaves, i.e. you can't use wi-fi or bluetooth. Since the USB port is there, you can plug in some external wi-fi or bluetooth device, if needed. /Claus

Hi there. A small update regarding bullet 1. of my last post. On the 3B+ I do run onboard Wifi nowadays. The Wifi part has been seriously improved on the 3B+. If you'd then run a USB DAC, you'll get rid of the shared use of the USB-ethernet interfaces. Which is really nice! Wifi connects
