I found the pinout, so I'll probably mod this to add a USB +5VDC connection because not only am I using one of these to power my S1 but the design of your board is so nice and the power supply so good, that I will be using one as a bench test power supply and having a good +5VDC supply to keep small MP3 players charged, or a phone charged, will be handy.

I do car stereo work and sometimes you have to bench test things but amps require a minimum of 30A when they get up into the higher power range.  Accessories that use USB (like the little Sansa MP3 player I use) need 5V to at least keep the batteries charged, so tapping into those pins will be good.

Cool, this might help, the 5v points are circled in Yellow and the 3.3v points are circled in purple.  The vias can fit size 24 AWG wire and you can get a breakout for a USB socket for a few bucks from Sparkfun.com
