Metro Mini - hard wire USB
I'm interested in hard wiring a USB cable to the Metro Mini. Data in/Data out/power/etc rather than using the mini-USB plug. Is this possible?

You could remove the connector and solder directly to the pads but it would not be easy. Is there a reason you want to do it this way?

Thanks. Wasn't sure it was possible. The USB pin on the board is deceptive since I thought it was for the USB input from the cable itself. It is apparently a 5vdc output pin, not an signal input pin.
