    Has anyone ever disassembled an Augmentix XTG630?

    I recently acquired one and I'd like to change the under keyboard SODIMM and add a Bluetooth module, but this thing is thoroughly sealed.

    I peeled the decal that covered the screws holding down the hinge cover and was able to remove the hinge cover and the 3 screws that secured the top of the keyboard, but that's as far as I can get. The keyboard is solidly attached by some method I can't identify.

    I looked at the service manual for the Dell XFR630 (which is also a ruggedized Latitude 630 that looks the same as the Augmentix) and it says there are 15 screws that hold the keyboard tray in. There are no such screws on the XTG and the tray does not appear to be removable.

    I was hoping someone here had done this before and could offer some advice.

    Thanks!
