Yes, this would work. However, if you are asking such a question you probably do not have the soldering skill to do the job without damaging the the PCB. If the connector completely broken off? If you still have even a little bit of the 4 metal contacts in place you might be able to jam it into a USB socket. The outside metal seath is not required. ************************************************************************ * ==> QUICK LIST-COMMAND REFERENCE - Put the following commands in <== * ==> the body of an email & send 'em to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <== * Join the list: SUBSCRIBE COMPUTERGUYS-L Your Name * Too much mail?
