The most interesting in the image is that the back locks solid, so 
probably the whole back is removable for battery change. That opens for 
commercial add-ons that replace the back and add room for bigger 
battery. If such add-on can use the micro-sd slot, it can contain a lot 
of stuff.  Connecting thrugh the usb would work, but look less elegant

If I do any homehack, it will probably be attached on the back outside 
the case, have it's own power (fuel cell?) and connect through usb. 
Probably have a switch for charging the phone. Containing in priority:

1) Powered usb hub (most important by far).
2) Big (usb?) disc.
3) wifi (but might be external given a powered usb hub).
4) Accelerometer.
5) Camera.

That way even the warranty should stay intact :-)
