If Framework opens this up for other companies to make modules, you might also see something like a USB port module with an integrated Logitech wireless mouse receiver. So then your mouse isn't even taking up a port. I know Bluetooth is a thing but you get the point. All of those tiny devices that people keep plugged into their laptop ports 24/7? This is a much better form factor for them, and you don't necessarily need to sacrifice a port for them either.

> If Framework opens this up for other companies to make modules From what I can tell, they already did that: https://github.com/FrameworkComputer/ExpansionCards https://github.com/FrameworkComputer/ExpansionCards > USB port module with an integrated Logitech wireless mouse receiver This guy seems to be making something like that (minus the USB port): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0_uOzNt-xwY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0_uOzNt-xwY People are working on some interesting stuff. Example: RP2040 expansion card: https://community.frame.work/t/rp2040-microcontroller-expansion-card/2487/15 https://community.frame.work/t/rp2040-microcontroller-expans... The engineers at framework seem to be very active on the forum engaging with the community.
