Make I2C accessible in some way

As the Atom Z3700 does have I2C/SPI interfaces, please try to make this available/accessible in some way.

  • Either as Docking/TOH, as asked in this request

  • or, if that is not possible, at least try to route the necessary pins of the SoC to some accessible pins/pads on the board, in case someone wants to heavily modify the tablet and doesnt't mind opening it.

I know that in the second case, the modification will be limited to more experienced/skilled/risktaking people, but at least it opens up "some" additional hackability... :-)

Edit: I assume that routing the necessary pins to some solderable pads somewhere on the board is not that much of an effort, is it?

Edit: I assume that routing the necessary pins As Philippe mentioned, it might be anywhere between small effort to some solderable pads somewhere a lot of effort and/or cost, but it depends on the current board and the extent of the modification that is not that needed. So maybe it is possible, maybe too much of an effort, is it?effort. Let's see...
