Don't you think the missing docs and the missing support in N900 might have 
the same reason: copyright issues that forbid both in FOSS?

maybe my little investigation you find at http://neo900.org/stuff/joerg/ECI/ 
might help re protocol low level.

We did this, the pin is mot listed in schematics under none of the possible 
names or pin number (AA3)
Looks to me like a R&D change done late, similar to the USB PHY.
