Comment(by pgf):

 the only reason not to do this is space -- i did an experiment where i
 enabled all the USB serial modules, plus, i think, the bluetooth modules
 (since i have a personal interest in those) and the extra space taken was
 something like 10-12MB.  that might not be unreasonable, but a) there are
 probably lots of other modules we could include (someone was asking for a
 webcam the other day), and/or b) we certainly wouldn't want to do that on
 an XO-1.  (and, we shouldn't be thinking of 4G machines -- we should be
 thinking of the 1.5-lite machines (2G).)
