Most of the mechanical robustness improvements could not be done for B2,
but appear in B3.

B3 will have better keyboards.

B3 will also have new antennae which are much more robust.  By adding
some rubber, they will bend enough to allow them to rotate before
breaking, and the drop tests of the new design work very well.
