Desolder some parts of the beaglebone

Hello,

I'm prototyping a product, using the Beaglebone. It works, but now I'm
trying to make it ft in a the final form factor so that we can demo
it. The product is small and thin, so I'd like to get rid of
everything I don't use.

I know it will void the warranty :slight_smile:

Do you think it will pose problems to remove (desolder)
- the expansion headers ?
- the ethernet port ?
- the usb port ?

I'm not really worried about the expansion headers, but I have really
no clue about ethernet and usb port.

Thanks for your thoughts !

Remove any of the parts you like. It will not be repaired if you break it,
but if you know what you are doing, there should be no ill affects from
removing the parts you mention.
