3 more wiikey Fusion questions.

[The Magic Man]

Is it OK to use IDE cable to hook up the wiikey 3.3v line?

Is there anywhere on the wiikey Fusion where there is a ground without scratching the PCB itself?

Is it OK if I use the 3.3v line on the DVD drive connector for the wiikey?

If you find somewhere on the forum where it goes into detail on the wiikey Fusion that would be great for you to post a link to it.

Yes, IDE cable wire will work.
The metal tabs on either side of both FFC connectors are grounded. Those are good sources.
There is no 3.3v on the DVD connector. Only 5v. It wouldn't be a good idea to give the Wiikey Fusion 5v.

Lol. Where do people usually get 3.3v from? The CPU power?
