I am sure having access to all these interfaces will please a lot of people. Does it make sense to ask said adapter board to support an IR receiver/decoder ? I know the task is supposed to be handled by an usb device, but I'm not sure I'd like to use that (hanging off the back, line-of-sight ) And again, thanks for your hard work, John. Are you talking about the dual row .1 inch headers sometimes seen on Motherboards for connecting USB? I don't see why that would be better over having a real USB connector on the board. Those headers are NOT proper impedance, just cheap, putting a real connector on the board is much better from a signal integrity standpoint and takes up less room on the board. For an IR receiver if you want an internal one just use one of the internal USB connectors. That's one of the things that will be talked about during the beta period, is a builtin front panel receiver something we have to have. John S.

Please keep us updated on the progress as the release draws closer. In regards to your question on micro or mini USB, my vote is for micro as you can find the Micro USB OTG to USB 2.0 Adapters very cheap on amazon, etc. I agree with epoch1970 and also always break ZIF connectors...but that maybe the best option considering the space you have. Thank you again for your hard work and dedication to this project. I look forward to seeing/auditioning the end result!

Re: [slim] Community Funded Squeezebox Replacement - Would you be interested?
JohnSwenson wrote: I've been doing some initial work on the CSP1 layout and it looks like there is going to be a little bit of spare area so I'm going to put some internal connectors on the board. I've decided to use a 7 port USB hub chip, there will be 4 ports on the back and 3 internal ports. Two of the ports on the back will be full size type A ports and the other two will be small ones. The internal ports will be small as well. So which do I use, mini or micro ports? They both use about the same board space so I can go either way. I'm also considering putting things like SPI, I2C, LVDS display and the paralel LCD interface on connectors. The problem is what connector to use. Most DIY types like to use the .1 dual row sockets, but they take up a LOT of room, I don't have that much room. My favorite is the .5mm FFC cable connectors, they are small, reliable, cheap and come in large numbers of pins. BUT that pretty much means a custom board on the other side to mate with the cable. I could do a simple adapter board which I could make available to those that wanted to tinker. (price would be somewhere between $50 and $15 depending on how many are made) Any thoughts on these? John, With the Quad Wandboards out now with SATA support, have you considered adding SATA to your carrier board? And if so, what do you think about including a power connector for a SATA drive to make powering an internal drive very clean and easy to hookup for simpletons like myself. I would love to be able to place a 2.5in SATA drive in an enclosure with your carrier board and a Quad WB. It is very exciting to follow your progress and can't say thanks enough for all the time and effort you have put into this project. And thanks to Clive and Adrian also. It was a breeze to setup and get my WB working.
