Thank you so much for that. I was looking *everywhere* and was beginning to suspect that I couldn't find it because it couldn't be done. I don't have access to a surface remount work station, and I wouldn't want to experiment on my Elipsa even if I did.

Two questions for you then:
1) Where did you find the FCC doc? Next time I'd like to include that in my searches.
2) Are all of the newer Kobos made this way now?
