I didn't find my original posting anymore so I couldn't reply to the 
original thread.

I took a sharp knife and took away some very thin plastic layers from 
the surface of J4 (16-pin connector). Plastic was removed above the pins 
from 7 to 10 and number 16. Now J4 is sitting perpendicular to circuit 
board.

Capacitors are right, marked "102". Maybe this occurred problem could be 
avoided by installing and soldering U1 socket about 0.5mm nearer to 
circuit board edge. If there is some "tolerance" in the bottom of U1 
socket and it's holes.

I'd suggest this could be included to the errata sheet.
