Uggghhhh, Microsoft is still using X-Clamps. Didn't they learn anything from the original 360?

Could it really be? Just a little bit of user-serviceability?

Yup, you're right. Didn't cross-check everything. Still wonder why the FCC version gets that chip and connector populated if they didn't put a cam on theirs. It could be just a debug port for non-production versions.

When they originally flash the firmware to the device, they have to put it in somewhere :)

ONYX might be the codename for the processor, or the codename of the GSM-based (AT&T) version of the phone.

Except for the WiFi chip, all others are from 2007 (or before), so Apple had this going on for some time.

Probably not, these chips were most likelly used in older iPods, and provide legacy support (Since AAC Encoding hasn't changed much i the past 5-7 years) and the touch drivers were most likelly for the older iPods and iPhones, with slightly different instructions.

What interface does the drive use? SATA, or a proprietary connection?

No modchip now success. this machine will be a flop unless someone finds a means to mod it.

There really isn't much modding that can be done, it supports ripping games to the hard drive, it can browse the internet, the only reason I can see to mod it, would be to restore playability for PS2/PS1 games.

Since it has it's own power supply, will it still charge when connected to a USB port on a PC(Or a Mac)?

This is a great teardown/guide! you should email one of the iFixit staff members and have them post it so the whole community can see it!

Most of the photos were inverted; we're fixing them all now and will be uploading soon.

This is great, I can't wait for the full teardown tommorow!
