What are you reading through the sensor board via ADC? AFAIK there are a few mostly useless sensors, temp, light, sound on that board. If you are not using those but are connecting to some external devices maybe you can just eliminate the board and connect directly to the 51-pin I/O. I have a design for a "break-out-board" here: http://www.etantdonnes.com/Motes/MicaBOB/ Unfortunately I don't have, nor plan to make, any more so you'll have to fab them yourself if this is what you really need.
