In line with great work currently going on with Retail Packaging etc. Has anyone started creating a GBZ guide / manual?

That sounds like a great idea, especially if these are being created for gifts.

I have plenty of DTP experience if anyone wants a hand with making it look good! :D

Awesome! Ill take a look. The damn proxy at work blocking the download so i'll grab it later. May look to tweak it in line with the GBZ itself and various models etc.

My gift idea is currently:

1x GBZ
1x 3DS Hard case e.g. (GBZ fits perfectly) - http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Black-Airfor ... SwImRYmYNl
1x Micro USB charge cable
1x USB with PDF manual on it + Custom Raspberry Pi Sticker

For the above im currently gifting up my Red GBZ so will have a red USB stick and Red Micro USB cable :)

I made one for a buddy that I built a GBZ for. It was a start, I intended to add more, but this is the basics, I felt, and I have yet to get back to it. If anyone else wants to add to it, or start up a community driven one, that would be great.

I added a zip file of the pdf of what I made and a screen shot. And also note: mine was made with Kite's SAIO board
