Besides, does taking one apart actually impart any knowledge? I looked > at the photos, if that helps ;) A number of people have taken PSPs apart. The only useful thing that has come from it was a dump of the firmware. Now that we have that it doesn't seem that there is much else to do since we don't know anything about the chips and there are not too many visible traces. However, if you have a new idea of something that could be done to the hardware, then maybe there would be a reason to sacrifice another. Cameron
