[ltp] 600e Case Surgery

[Gary Huntress]

This thread http://zurich.ai.mit.edu/hypermail/thinkpad/2001-08/0492.html
talks about a "latch" on the right hand side that releases the top of the
case.   This is shown clearly in this
ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/pc/pccbbs/mobiles/09n1033.pdf  manual but doggone
it I still can't find this alleged "small hole about half way down the right
side"

The only hole is the headphone jack, and I've gently stuck a small
screwdriver in there but nothing released.

Are there any other brave hardware hackers aboard who might recognize the
location of this latch?


Thx!
