Are there pins for MicroSD support on the Nexus 7?

"The bottom right 4 pins are connecting the Mobo to the docking pins which can see in Step 12.

The top 24pin array is typical layout for smtc connector so not likely for a hidden Micro SD socket no go :("

I'm not sure if I would call them pins, but at the lower right of the motherboard in this picture you can see some unused contacts. What they're for and what they can be used for is beyond me.

"Those are external pogopins for an upcoming dock, I believe?

Quite what additional functionality they'll offer however, I'm unsure."

"according to me adding a microsd card slot or somethin' would be a little harder for everyone to keep up with but u sure can exchange the kingston internal memory as you see here in the lower left corner:

MAybe we can replace it with our own 64gig version....

That would be once and for all and we will be having a monster storage capacity"

these ICs are BGA and difficult to replace with equipment. Sorry but impossible to DIY these days. Even then there is no guarantee the extra memory is going to be addressable from the software without some firmware hack. Let's just hope Google managed to do what this was suppose to do.. challenge other manufacturer's to outdo them in feature and price

"Actually, on the original Asus MeMo 370T, the bottom edge of the unit had a micro USB, micro HDMI and a TF slot.

I am assumming the 24pin connector that is missing from just to the right of the memory chips is for the HDMI and TF card daughterboard.

Also, CN3 at the top of the unit is a 24pin connector for the missing 8NP autofocus camera module. Anyone able to dig up the part number of that camera? There is already a mounting area in the metalic frame of the tablet and the NFC antenna was designed for the camera as well. Hmmmm...."
