Modding the Asus Eee PC 701

Blogger tnkgrl has posted some useful information on her tnkgrl Mobile blog for those interested in modding their Eee Pcs.




Among her findings -

There’s a 5V trace (off in standby) that’s available without draining current from the existing USB connectors (as shown above).

There are 8 USB ports provided by the Intel chipset:
- 3 are the existing USB connectors
- 1 is used by the SDHC/MMC card reader
- 1 is used by the webcam
- 2 are used by the mini PCIe card slots (1 for each)
- 1 is still unknown (debug connector, perhaps?)

There are lots more info at her blog.
