DandelionWine · 01-06-2012, 03:09 PM

Hi all, I've just about settled on a T1 as my first e-reader

: but I don't like the shiny finish. I was thinking about using fine sand paper to apply a matte finish to the case, like this : http://lifehacker.com/5648885/use-a-...ne-electronics

To do this properly, I'd want to remove the plastic bezel to avoid getting sand in buttons and internals, so the question I have is, how difficult are the T1s to disassemble? Are the bezels easily removed, or are they an integral part of the frame/assembly? I've only physically looked at one once, and I'm assuming the internals are pretty compact.

Thanks!
