Has anyone thought about adding in an integrated fingerprint scanner?? I know this would take much more modding than the GPS, like having to cut into the case to allow the scanner to be accessed. If nobody else takes on this challenge, I may be able to get to right after I integrate the USB hub, touch screen and GPS.

You should be able to cannibalize either of these:

BTW: This is the same brand that Dell has used in the past -- my Latitude D830 is the UPEK reader.

The only problem I see is getting this integrated with the palm rest. I don't have the tools to reform the plastic so that its molded for the fingerprint scanner.
