I hate those connectors with a passion, they're so
small that they're almost
impossible to solder up. And half the time you spend so long trying to
solder to the pins that you end up melting the buggers....gah! :-(
IIRC, if the connector you're working on is plugged into a mating socket
while you're soldering it, it tends to retain its shape better.
