I also took some time to probe the Iliad from outside and I am now pretty convinced that there is no serial console reachable at the moment without any further hacking. The 6th pin from the left is the one that looked most promising, but every button sent out the same bitpattern except for the "on/off" button (one single pulse). The buttons send these bitpatterns as soon as the Iliad is turned on (means that this is hardwired as far as I can see it).

What might be interesting is the fact that if you press the "News" button, there is also a signal on the 5th pin from the left.
