Carles,
To open the Jornada
1. Remove all batteries (main battery and backup battery)
2. Close the unit and turn it upside down, hinge away from
your body.
3. There are (3) Number 6 Torx screws on the bottom of the unit
on the side away from the hinge (with small arrows pointing at
them)
Remove these.
4. Turn the unit right side up, open the display and the keyboard
should lift out if you (gently!) put your fingernails under the
edge
that has the space key.
After opening, the internal mask ROM/DRAM daughter card is on the
left side, held in place by its connector which runs along the edge
with the hinge. By (very, very) gently rocking the board left and right,
it should pop right out. Be extremely careful of the connector, as it
is quite easy to damage.
The above information is given for reference only. By opening up the
unit, you will almost certainly void the warranty.
Good luck!
