    I was wondering, how in the world do you switch the panel on a P157sm? I don't see any screws or anything on how to open the case Oo

    The bezel is clipped on, snap the front off by prying on the inside edge and it should come off fairly easy.

    No, nothing glued in. Technically not user serviceable but about as close as you get. Just don't use a lot of force.

    I generally use an old credit card to slide cases open. Never broke anything with that method.

    Finger nails even work if you are careful, you do need a bit of leverage but it comes away pretty quickly.
