One thing which I miss on RPis, especially these tiny ones, is a tty exposed via the charging USB.

I'm not sure how that works? you connect the pi to your laptop and use putty to login?

This would also require one of those tty-to-usb cables?

[HeyLaughingBoy]

No, just a regular USB cable. USB's CDC protocol makes it look like a serial port to the host PC.

Or even better USB OTG.

You can do this with gadget mode, the g_serial module.

[Rochus]

Sure, but it has two USB sockets of which one is only used for power supply; if that one could also be used as OTG (instead of just TTL RX/TX as suggested by the fellow) that would be great.
