[coplate]

Thanks knc and everyone, I know I've gone back and edited my posts with everything people have asked for ( kindle type etc. ), so hopefully this thread remains useful for people searching in the future.

In the first post I mentioned I "took it completely out of the frame and removed the battery, but did not separate the screen from the logic board", So I have all the tools to pull the bezel off, just not the smaller screwdriver to get the screen seperated form the board.

There was just 1 screw under the black tape on mine, but it took me WAY too long to realize why i couldn't pull it out. I was like "Are there clips I can't see, is it just in there really tight, whats going on. then I finally realized, oh, there's probably another screw. It was a good 4 minutes.

Other than that post I linked from geekmaster ( I see knc1 was in there ), has anyone had any experience buying new aftermarket batteries? It doesn't look like amazon has official ones.

I can see many on ebay in the proper form factor with official looking labels, but I've never bought a replacement battery for anything that wasn't from Best buy or Ebay.

They are all about $15 on ebay, and $30 on <wildcard>Battery<wildcard>.com
