Nokia's N800 dissected: look at all the pretty innards!

by Paul Miller, posted Jan 29th 2007 at 10:32AM


We've seen plenty of nekkid gadgets in our day, most of which reveal nothing more than the particular warranty-scoffing recklessness of the user that busts open his or her unit for the joy of sharing with others. Nokia's 770 was a notable exception, with hackers discovering an undocumented microphone that turned out to be quite the boon to VoIP junkies. There are no such surprises in this N800 dissection by ThoughtFix, but we're still pretty impressed by how sexy Nokia bothered with making this thing look on the inside. Check out the disassembly on video after the break, or hit up the read link for some snazzy pics.

Samsung BD-P1000 exposed

by Paul Miller, posted Jun 13th 2006 at 8:37PM

Looks like our friends across the pond are going to have to wait even longer than expected to see this player in action, so we thought we'd let y'all peep some hands on pics of the Samsung BD-P1000 and its innards while your spirits are still down. The word on the street is that load times are a fairly snappy 15 seconds or so, but that there might be some lame 1080p24 to 1080i60 to 1080p60 conversion going on for HDMI output, so we'll be on the lookout for more details as they come.

Sandisk's Sansa e270 gets nude

by Stan Horaczek, posted Jun 7th 2006 at 12:01PM


Loyal Engadget reader turned gadget pornographer Francis noticed how much we cared for Sandisk's new Sansa e200 series MP3 players, so he cracked his open and sent us pictures of the silicon and flash memory goodness that spilled forth from within. Sure, the photos don't leave much to the imagination, but you can't tell us you weren't wondering what that navigation wheel looked like under its shiny plastic cover. Don't worry, we're not here to judge.

[Thanks, Francis]

MacBook innards exposed!

by Paul Miller, posted May 18th 2006 at 2:30AM

These days you're not a real gadget unless somebody splays you across their workbench for all the world to see. Apple products are especially privy to such treatment, and the MacBook is proving no exception, going from announcement to dissection in roughly 24 hours. The dissasembler over at Kodawarisan responsible for this was quite thorough, and along the way displays a couple of the niceities of the MacBook. First off, the RAM slots are quite convenient. You just remove the screws from the memory door and you have access to the two slots, with little ejector tabs to help you with your efforts. Replacing the hard drive is just as easy (pictured bottom left), which means you can finally replace your own drive without voiding the warranty. Perpendicular storage here we come!
