Is that FUD for the led's? How well does that work?

Yes this is FUD and the material aspect is clear and very smooth. The details of my lightguide is very impressive I find. I can see on this part the details about 0.2mm that I drawn.
The case appears also very smooth with White, Strong & Flexible polished.
The lightguides fits perfectly in the holes of the case. There is just a gap of 0.1mm between the hole of the lightguides and this is enough to pass it through.
I'm very satisfied about the printing quality.

Not to go too far off the topic of 3D printing, but I'm loving it! I'm rather impressed with the RPI.
PM me if you want more observations. <grin>

I will post one public observation: On the Raspberry PI, you're going to want a powered USB hub to drive the keyboard / mouse / external storage / other widget.
If I was designing my own RPI case.. i'd make it large enough to put the hub INSIDE the main enclosure, possibly even stripping the case off the hub to reduce the space required.

I think it depends how you are using your Raspberry Pi. I use it like a media center with XBMC and I just use one USB connector for mouse and keyboard (or just with my phone after to have configured XBMC). External storage on RJ45 and HDMi for sound and video.
