Thanks for the replies guys! Ive now got heaps of reading to do, will let you know how i go for sure, i think im going to get hooked on modding things after this....

Access is also a big problem, since my solder irons head was about as wide as the gap, so I had to come from above with the tip. in retrospect, it would have been heaps easier to do the normal mod. That being said, now that I've done it, it would be easier to do again, so I guess with some familiarity of the space you have to work with, its easier and do-able. Take a look at those pins before you decide to do it though, cause it's not the easiest thing I've done... but it works! |

You always seem to choose the insane way of doing things, don't you? I'll add the warning. And congratulations, darkfury18! Kudos on picking up on the pin 24 bit. I forgot that FireWire support was dropped in the nano. In that case, there are quite a few more unused pins that I hadn't considered, perfect for my iPod digital out DAC/amp. And thanks for the extra info, no_eye_dear. Maybe I'll pick up one of those docks for my 3G which doesn't have USB charging. =T |
