The SPI which is marked (SPI/I2C) is a mystery. Hopefully this goes to a hardware based SPI and I2C controllers so there can be some hope of $50 instead of $500 sensors.
It's very nice to see friction lock connectors on the PWM. Too bad this didn't extend to the other I/O's. It's for 2009 afterall, hotglue shouldn't be required to keep wires from falling out
