Keep us posted on the performance and any issues you may or may not run into.
Are the corners rounded... or are they 90 degree angles?

If they aren't rounded at all... I'd consider it 100% necessary. I tried to slide my unit in and once it got to the corners would not go in without forcing it in... and it would leave a terrible gap as well. That's something I could not live with... but I have OCD so YMMV.

Glad to hear the Avant 1 worked out for you OP. You'll have to update with your feelings on it after you get the USB wifi adapter and live with it for a few months.
