I do not plan on soldering directly. The contacts can be heated and
solder melted on them then placed on the board.
The factories use mechanical solder machines that use heat, but their
process is so fast and automated they bond fast.
I do not want the board/chip heating.

If you heat that chip up, there is a chance you may wipe the
memory... I am not sure but I would think twice about soldering directly...
Have you thought about holding probes firmly to the contacts while
someone else salvages the data?

Would that it be so easy.
This one pulled the contacts straight off the PCB and all that is
left is spots where the contacts were soldered.
I have salvaged all the contacts, so will attempt to solder them
back on (after having soldered the wires to them) and connect it,
get the data off of it, and then put it away (I hate to throw
things, my wife hates it.)
Put all the data on a new card, plus burn a CD of the data.
Charge as much as I can get away with ethically and remind them
once again, back up, back up, back up.

Looking at Figure 3, I would think that the PCB could just be shoved into
a USB socket.
