I think a good solution would be a thin plate that uses the mounting bosses
on the botton of the newt. you could incorporate a slimline USB connector
into it. I was thinking about mounting my dongle to a 1/16 piece of delrin
and permanently fastening it to the bottom the newt to help eliminate the
stress on the I/C port.
