There are a number of people on this board that can do PCB design, so why not just state what your thinking of doing?

He's mentioned it a couple of times, I think he's trying to create a way for the 2x to connect to the internet...

You do realise that people have already done mods that plug into the ext socket and give wifi? True, they are not selling the product, but everyone else can just use a cradle if they don't have the knowledge.

I think he is ecpecting when Pandora comes out with wifi and the mutliplayer games start coming, people that still have GP2X will want to join in, thus the need to add a simple wifi connection to the GP2X. ( i might take this back, it appear's it might be fix to the F200 lack of a usb network chip)

But squidge your right, it's already been done through the USB host. Ive even seen one example where the guy put the usb inside and cut out a hole at the top for the socket (isnt the most complicated part covernting a voltage level from the EXT from 3.3V to USB 5.0V?). It was surpising the GP2X was able to supply the power need to drive the wifi adapter.
