Well here are some pictures, courtesy of RDC off of Xbox-scene.



Hit the PS button with one side, and the PS common line with the other side. TP11 is the common line.

I think so. I'm not 100% sure, but i'm pretty sure that TP11 is the ground for the PS button, and the PS point is the actual button point. So just put a momentary switch between the two, and when you press the momentary switch, it should register the PS button. You should check with someone else though, just to be 100% sure.
