Yeah, that looks about right... Tricky to solder headers to those edge-type
solder points, but not impossible. I've heard it talked about (Dave Jones /
EEVblog mentioned it about a product sample he got, in one or two of his
YouTube segments). Never actually done it tho...

Yes it is, although the pinout table could stand to be a goodly bit more
informative. What I meant was, I had missed the label for it on the photo
type diagram where it has a little inset picture of the part where the
connector is, and says what and where it is. That's all... although I think
it might be about time for new glasses! :P
