Has anyone seen a teardown of the kindle 3 lighted cover?
I was hoping to find one, and considering doing some work to try to make the light dimmer, or add a switch of some sort to make it dimmable. But I cannot find any images onling of the case cut apart.

Does anyone know of any such thing, so I can go in there prepared?

Yeah, I've actually seen both of those.
I'm trying to figure out when in the case the cords are already laid out, so I don't cut through them if I start ripping mine open.
But, it's possible nobody has needed to do this before, and I might be the first one.
