Well, we are designing a handheld games console based on EOMA-68.

We have thought about doing an interchangeable screen. Users can buy the handheld games console without a display (more cheaper, users can use the HDMI of EOMA-68), with a 480p display or 720p display (more expensive) and upgrade it in a future. We would connect the TFT and touch screen connector on a PCB, and user may connect it with a connector to the base PCB.

We have thought about use neodymium magnet (some of 2x1 mm of them) to connect the case of the display+touch panel with the case of handheld games console. But we have some doubts about how to connect both PCB.

We've thought use a slim B2B connector like this: http://www.literature.molex.com/SQLImages/kelmscott/Molex/PDF_Images/987651-2331.PDF

The problem is that slim B2B connector have slow mating cycles (about 30-50 times). Any can help us about a better way to connect it?

Thanks.
