Thanks for the links! I'll look at those and see what I can figure out.

ahh if you're happy to work with arduino's you'll do fine.

ok. right. the first thing to remember is: it's PCMCIA, so you can
use models for that. there's an eoma68.stl file around somewhere
which i use... let me see if i can find it... ah! here you go:
http://hands.com/~lkcl/eoma/kde_tablet/3dcase/
second thing: i diiid do some KiCAD libraries, way back 4 years ago -
it was such a bitch that i had to use proprietary software instead.
the libraries however still exist: http://git.hands.com/ and you want
eoma.git.
thirdly, the CAD modelling that i use is based on python, where i
wrote something called pyopenscadobj.py, which uses pyopenscad.py,
which then auto-generates openscad files, which then on-demand
generate STLs.
oh wait - i used pyopenscadobj.py in the sandwich200, but used
functional programming for the tablet 3dcase and the laptop.
anyway, feel free to explore...
