Finally I had to do it... I could not resist... I tried to stop myself, but there was no way.
Those of you who read "Among the cuircuits of an Axim X50v" know this well...
My phobia, towards everything that is nicely built and working, has struck again, and I just came across a nice PSP, when, in one of my histerical fits, I began taking it apart. Sadistically. Calmly. Piece by piece.

As usual, the same warnings. If you love your family, and yourself, I advice you NOT to follow this.
As a matter of fact, besides altering your mental features, this operation invalidates the warranty.

Right then, in order to take apart a PSP, we will four main itmes:
A PSP, a screwdriver, lots of patience, and a mental illness.
Once we confirmed the above, we can then continue with the process.
We firstly take out the battery, and any memory stick, or MD; now put a cloth on the table to protect our PSP.

Underneath the battery, we find two screws, which we will have to remove, two of these are hidden by the warranty sticker, which we can eliminate in two ways:

a) we can tear it off with anger, and the hell with the warranty.
b) We can warm it with a hairdryer and then remove it very carefully....
We remove all the screws as shown in PICTURE 1, without forgetting the central small screw (PICTURE 2).
Now we can remove the cover.

Before we take the display off, we first need take away the bar to which the key controls are applied to (PICTURE 3).

Some may decide to first take off the keys from the bar: this is not much use, and could create problems.
We apply a slight lever-pressure on the sides of the bars, and gently remove the keys.
We can now remove the display, again by applying a soft lever pressure on the 4 sides (PICTURE 4).
We need to be very careful not to touch the display as we take it off, as we could damage it.

We can now remove the metallic casing for the screen. We unscrew all 6 small screws we see in PICTURE 6 and we gently lift it off its place.
We can now remove the keypads by removing the screws as shown in PICTURE 7, and take off the connection, by raising the small lever.

To take off the right keypad, we need to remove the connection screws, the powers one, and force and force the small hooks, with the usual procedure (PICTURE 7).

Together with the keypad, the LEFT and RIGHT top buttons will also come off.
Underneath the right keypad we notice the WIFI antenna.
We take it off, being very careful not to force the cable that keeps it connected to its electronic circuits (PICTURE 8).
We can remove it completely later on.

We remove the speakers and disconnect them.

From the motherboard, we unplug the two MD reader connections (PICTURE 9).
By removing the screw (PICTURE 9), we set the motherboard free, and we can remove it.

By removing the three screws, shown in PICTURE 10 we can take off the thin metal layer that hides the MS card readier and the WIFI circuits, which we can now remove.

We now get to the most complicated part: removing the MD reader.

Remove the screw as shown in PICTURE 11.

In the upper part (where you insert the MD) apply a lever pressure on one of the sides where the metal structure is hooked on the plastic door (PICTURE 12).

Now keep the plastic door closed and apply a lever pressure on the bottom, on the same place we removed the screw from (PICTURE 12); both sides will be set free, so that we can completely remove the plastic door

Remove the four screws as shown on PICTURE 13 and finally remove the MD reader.
Our PSP is now completely taken apart.

It looks like the PSP has a good built and design quality.
I hope this guide is somehow useful for all you torn buyers, or at least satisfies your curiosity.
