It sounds like it's going to be very interesting. You're going to be the new local board man if this works. ;-)

Given the simplicity of this board (2 headers, 2 displays, 4 chips, and 3 discrete components) it might be easier just to breadboard it on a piece of perf-board with wires. That way you don't have to re-route traces to the displays, but simply run flying leads to take the place of traces.
