Sure thing:)

Connect the SDA pin of the compass to the SDA of the i2c interface on EZ-B
Connect the SCL pin of the compass to the SCL of the i2c interface on the EZ-B
Connect the VCC pin of the compass to the +5 of the i2c interface on the EZ-B
Connect the GND pin of the compass to the GND of the i2c interface on the EZ-B

I noticed the compass i2c is a little strange for wire distance. I kept my wires very short (less than 2 inches). If u make the wires longer, you may need additional pull-up resistors.

MovieMaker had used 10k ohm pull-up resistors: http://www.ez-robot.com/Community/Forum/posts.aspx?threadId=1303&page=2

Hope that helps:)
