I'll be receiving my Teensy boards in 2 days, and I was checking how to do an internal installation inside the PS3 casing (FAT model) , i will solder the wires to the USB port pads on the PS3 motherboard itself, i already opened the Ps3 and checked the soldering points and where the Teensy should be located too, i will also drill the Front panel near the USB port for the Led to go there, and also I'll route the mini-USB port (female) to the back of the PS3 (will make a small opening and fix it there) so I can update the Teensy board with future updates.

From your experience guys (the ones with Teensy boards already running )
could this make any problem if the Teensy is always connected to the USB port of the PS3 ?!? well, testing will tell...
and in case of any problem, i can add a small switch to the Vcc wire powering the Teensy so i can deactivate it when i need to..

Any suggestions regarding this will be very welcome

Roger

I'd like to do the same. Shouldn't be too difficult. Maybe we can start a new thread as a project log. I haven't got hold of a board yet mind.

blackcat usb and an old at&t dsl line filter gutted and hacked up with a pair of needle nose pliers and wire cutter. afrotechnology for the win and great justice!!!

there are actually 2 lights on the blackcat usb, though i've only seen one of them light up. anyway, dremel to the rescue!!! and like my wife says, 2 holes are always better than one!

Wow, these are really turning out good! That light is DOPE and the pro duo case is AWESOME too. I like that it is clear. Damn, where is UPS with my case?!?!?

I posted it few days ago in the psgroove thread

It's probably the best free case for this board, nothing wrong with using the box that came with it.
