Yes I was looking at putting the vents in the bottom/rear and have been thinking of ways to keep out the spiders/ants etc for the outside one, probably a little bit of fly mesh over the hole. thanks.

I ended up with a similar setup but with everything tied to the cover for easy connection while still attached: just pop the lid, I mean case: http://jeelab.equi4.com/2009/04/18/mounting-the-jeenode-pulse/ This was for inside use, hence the cutouts. For outside use, I'd use cutouts on the bottom (whichever side that is) and place the components at the upper end - that way moisture quickly gets out once it gets in. Which it will. Lovely case.
