Five years of technology has slimmed down those Li-Ion batteries a lot.
So you may be surprised at what capacity you can get into the free space.

Tether Helium filled balloons to it.
Unless you can find an anti-gravity unit on a PCIe module.

Sometimes Broadcom literature is hard to find, but start by web-searching the full part number.
You may be able to find the data sheet (including connector pin out used) for that module.
Same with the 3G modem/radio.
If they are both USB, then cobble in a usb hub chip in the existing lines to the 3G module.
That will give you another USB (host) port or two inside the case.

If you think the serial port connection pads are tiny on the newer Kindles, just wait until you try to "tap into" those PCIe connector pins.
