Dissecting a Tungsten E

This guy took apart his palm pilot in an effort to fix it. I think that voids the warranty, but it makes sense if you can fix the thing. And he did. What was the Big Fix? A bit of tape on the down key to make it more responsive.

And like every other neat project on the net, this one has at least one forum
href="http://discussion.brighthand.com/palmhandhelds/showthread.php?s=&threadid=61836">discussion about it.

What did I learn from it? Even though Palm says you can't replace the batteries on them (so you buy more) you really can. And there are even some links to battery replacement directions. Here are the links from that forum:

Instructions (with photos) for performing T|E battery replacement can be found at:

There's an accompanying video of the procedure at:

Why do I care, I don't even have a Tungsten E? I dunno
