No, I wouldn't...which is why I said "if *you* really wanted to get at it". Besides, I'm not so sure that using something like acetone to dissolve superglue (assuming that's what it was) and then resealing it would be obvious. I would imagine that anyone wishing to get at it that badly would just keep the player. jeff --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
