There is a method for larger boards the plates the side of the board and
then comes back with a router bit and selectively removes copper on the edge
to form pins. Hughes Circuits in San Marcos, California has done this
before, however the board I did was too small to use that technique.

Ofer, what you describe was my second suggestion as well as several others
from TechNet.  They claim there's not enough space to do the castellating
type of layout and it has to be on a smooth side.  Several Technetters
responded with requests to see the files in hopes of quoting.  I'll let
everyone know how this one turns out.

Thanks,

Bob
