[NTLK] mp2000 internal keyboard port?

i vaguely remember reading something about a planned accessory/upgrade
to the messagepad 2000/2100 - a screen lid with built-in keyboard.
it's been a while, so all i can remember is that it explains the small
plugged gap on the hinge side of the mp2000. presumably, the keyboard
upgrade would thread a ribbon cable through this gap to a waiting port
on the logic board.

my question is this: is there actually an unused keyboard port on the
logic board? if so, has anybody fiddled with plugging in, say, the
keyboard from an emate?
