This sounds quite interesting. Would you mind explaining here how this cable would allow you to do the unbricking/reflashing?
Regarding access to the pxa-255 serial console...so do you think this is just an issue of getting a map of the pinouts used by that funky (what is it, 20 pin?) connector that attaches the travel hub or would some other hardware hack be needed to get access to the UART pins?
