   i think that's it for the MNT Pocket Reform motherboard, at least my TODO list is all checked. my only remaining question is how to do OTA updates on the RP2040 (without hauling out any cables). in any case it's possible via the top USB-C connector but it requires opening the case and fiddling around a bit.

     forgot to mention: usb hub layout is also new, because of upgrade from TUSB8040 to TUSB8041

     @mntmn Are there any free ports on one of the internal hubs to leave it connected all the time? (Or perhaps with a switch on the data lines to disconnect it)

     @ChartreuseK theoretically i could use the jumpers on the top right to connect the RP2040 via usb to the SOM internally. but i need to know/check if the RP2040 can be flashed without losing its GPIO state (to keep the power rails on)
