Holly fuck did you say Win7 all the way! :eek: And here I thought you were an Apple zealot to the exclusion of all else :D




Welcome to the dark side my friend. It's comfy here in Windows land. Here have a drink.

Win7 phones are pretty awesome. No where near as awesome as Apple's iPhone. No where near as shitty as Android.

The connector there are all the same. Right? I don't have a multimeter to check. What are the odds that each pin is somehow connecting to something else?

I'm guessing it's a ground


Here is the other side:

Not necessarily grounded but common reference (all pads bonded).

That's usually the case but there are several different types of "ground". ;)

Oh and Windows 7 phones are pretty bad. Honestly I'd rather use a Blackberry.

Yeah, that bad! :p

It's like practicing disarming IEDs in school. You may fail that instance if you release the magic smoke but at least you live. :D

I have friend who do that for a living. I wonder if they can figure out the pin out on this card

It's 80x80, not much you can do with that! :p



No diagrams on the broadcom site?
What are you trying to do? Looks like a common wireless NIC for a notebook.

It doesn't show up on broadcom's site :\
BCM943224PCIEBT2

It's Mini PCI Express & mSATA but in a "new" form factor. That's all I've been able to find. It doesn't fit a Mini PCIe slot :\

So you want to wire it up to a PCIe slot, once you find the pin out?

I've got a friend of a friend, actually he was an old friend of mine back in the day, who apparently hasn't had a job in the last 4 years or more and lives at home off his girlfriend. Supposedly he spends most of his time chilling playing games and the like and shares his girlfriends income. WTF. Don't know weather to be jealous or not.

How does his girlfriend stand him though?
