Much, much later...

I finally managed to remove the microsd card. It's a bit like pulling a tooth with a piece of string tied to the door handle...

So anyway, I used a glue stick and a strip of paper. Put glue on one side of the paper, then squiggle it into the microsd slot (as far as possible in between card and metal cover)... make sure it sticks to the microsd card (wait half hour for glue to dry), then pull slowly.

It didn't work with just a duct tape... even the paper strip method I had to use twice, as first time it only peeled off a thin layer of the water proof coating or whatever it is, instead of sticking to the card itself.

In the end it went out quite easily... not sure if any of my previous attempts helped.
