Has someone taken apart a DSi yet? If someone did it would clear up all the BS that ppl ask, just 1 thread to solve like 10000.

disassembly of the DSi actually looks a bit easier than the ds lite (no more rolled up flat cable to worry about). I'll probably put together a guide shortly once one of the HK companies provide replacement cases (and yes, I can't believe that they haven't churned them out yet considering that the DSi has been available for 6 months in japan already).

weird fact:
the blue coloured DSi that was released here in the states 2 weeks ago is actually a bright orange/yellow colour and then painted. (very odd) it reminds me of the way auto bumpers were manufacturered in the late 80's / early 90's



links for DSi teardown images / videos:
a good set of tear-down images
nice "stop motion" dis-assembly / re-assembly video
