dna 200 questions

[WannaGetHealthy]

Hey folks. Help the new guy out. I was wondering if anyone would tell me if the screen that comes with the dna 200 is the same screen that the other dna chips use. Also: Has anyone messed around with removing the micro USB plug and wiring it elsewhere? Feesable or no?

The reason I ask if anyone cares even a tiny bit: I'm about to make my first mod.....it's been a long time coming and I'm trying to plan the internal layout. If you are good willed, wish me good luck.

Feel like a worm.....found the answer the my screen question 5 min later on the data sheets.....meh. I'd still enjoy an answer on the usb port, though

For future readers, the screen is the same as the dna40.
Re usb port:
It can be done but the data lines need to be shielded. There is some chat about this on the early adopters forum: DNA 200 Early Adopters Forum

Thanks for the redirect

I'm also starting a DNA 200 project and the position of the screen annoy the heck out of me. I would have loved if they could have made longer ribbons. Anyone detached theirs and know how much play you got? Allows 90° bend? 270° with a twist? I was maybe thinking of using a micro usb extender cable to give a bit of playground to place the port.

USB can be moved, with great soldering skill and the right tools. Most classify it as unmovable.
