Hi Vasi, I think I prefer keeping all socket pins, it'll be more solid, and will require less work to adapt. I don't think traces between Xbee scoket holes should be a problem, manufacturer should handle this (eagle checks and reports everything is fine, running seeed rules).
Another point that come to me: the board is 5cm width, and is supposed to be breadboardable. But isn't 5cm width a little too... big for a breadboard ??
