Old iPod mini: Take apart or sell?

When I grabbed my 5G 60GB iPod, my wife "inherited" my iPod nano, and as a result, her 4GB pink iPod mini complete with an engraving reading "Kiss my Kris" on the back went into complete and total disuse.

Now, I was just going to try to sell it on eBay along with my 60GB 4G iPod, but then this morning when I woke up, I thought: "Hey, why not take it apart and try to get that 4GB microdrive running in my D70?"

What do you think TUAW readers? Take apart or sell? And have any of you managed to get this drive working in a digital camera post such an autopsy?

Update: As one of our readers, arkowi, pointed out, this thread verifies that the microdrive in the iPod minis will not work in a digital camera due to hardware limitations and the device not being CF-compliant. This is how Apple got the drives at reduced cost. That being said, I do have a 340MB microdrive. I wonder if I eviscerated the iPod mini and then eviscerated both of these microdrives, if I could transport that 4GBs of data over into the CF-compliant interface of the 340MB microdrive. Hmm... That would be a good hack.
