I'll have to look again but I think it's sound, usb, ps/2, and one more thing..

But you are correct I agree that custom connectors are better (especily for something like ps2 that is only on by friction) for wearable use > How much $ for the PC-2553 sans daughter board? > "The sample price is $399 and 10pcs $366 and over. Terms of payment COD FOB LA, CA and samaple is available now." That was from an email I got when enquiring about my exchange. I will probably end up buying another one becuase I have a farly large credit left with them after traiding in my $588 EM-350 oh darn.. I'll have to have another wearable! Or possibly go the MIThril rout and do a body network.. hmmm :-) Notice of course that it said 'available now' but that I'm still waiting for one to be shipped from Tiawan..
