The urge to buy a 16 when I already have a fairly new 13. I just wish they had better speakers and a haptic trackpad.

The beautiful thing about the design is that one can implement their own. I intend to replace the entire top.
I'm pretty new to the FW community. Is there a good spot to fine ideas and mods?
I'm not sure that there is yet. Anything that I personally come up with will be open-sourced as soon as there's enough to put on "paper". I'm mainly awaiting more design drawings and specs.
My overall plan is:
- Display: hinge attachments to quick-release, add AR display co-processor (likely SBC and FPGA, using USB-PD DisplayPort altmode), add low-power terminal display
- Keyboard: change to split ergo-mech keyboard
- Trackpad: put trackpad in bucket of shame, replace with teack all or nub
- Extra space: and jumperless breadboard, PSU, and AWG
