Commander X16

While I'd personally be fine with only having access to a phase 2 or phase 3 product, I'd gladly buy a phase 1 kit on day one to help support the project - just name a price and create an order page and I'll sign right up.  Having an official case is nice and all, but I think that getting the actua...
