Xbee-carrier-232-or-ttl

Hello

Can this new carrier be fitted with a Jedstack connectors so that a plugapod can fit? Pin for pin it looks like it can be accommodated except for the serial TTL for the other versions of the plugapod and the DTR/CTS/RTS pins? If so, is there enough room for the XBee Pro to reside underneath?

My plan is to take a Plugapod - attach a jedstack connector on the bottom with pins up and then solder posts throughout the J1 and J5 connectors of the XBEE-CARRIER-232-OR-TTL. Does anyone see a problem with this link solution between the plugapod, zigbee, and this new carrier? Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Thank in advance for your replies

Yes, pins are compatible and there is enough clearance for this plan.

The reception signal maybe a little weaker with the antenna flats down and underneath. But you can always use the XBee module with the external antenna if you have to .
