ISP issues. I did manage to upload this (admittedly very dark) demo earlier the same day:

Luke, have you tried Geekbench?

No. I am stress-testing the unit now however - mostly focusing on thermals (as we all know the performance). Is there Geekbench for Linux ARM?

There is not. We may just use Android version Sad

The Phoronix test suite would be an interesting candidate.

Thanks for the update video.
Nice looking laptop. Like the ISO keyboard.

Does the USB-C port support thunderbolt 3 docks similar to the Dell WD-15?

How possible is it to throw in a really thin fan with a really basic heat spreader?

Not very. There is no need for a heat-spreader, since the bottom of the case makes contact the SOC and acts as a big heatsink/spreader already.

I've been torture testing the device and playing with thermals over the past few hours. While you can get the unit to spike 80*C under unrealistic load in under a minute, it doesn't down-clock massively (1.4-1.6ghz on big cores) when totally grilled.

I have played some games, watched 4K movies and done other demanding but real-life things and never hit the thermals. Playing Tekken 6 (PSP) was probably the most intense real-life benchmark, and that had the SOC hovering at 76*C, which is just under the thermal threshold for maintaining full frequency.  

That said, I'll do a little bit of modding for fun in the coming days and see if there is something simple to be done to improve thermal performance further - not that I think its necessary.
