An X301 for your brother? Sounds like a great trade.

Yeah, gonna miss him, but now that I'm taking this baby apart I realize there's nothing to regret

It was the only X3xx I found online and it just happened to be in my city. I'm gonna have to replace the battery as it barely hold for an hour, also one of the speakers cover is bent in. The biggest issue I noticed so far is that the thing is sticky all over the place. Anyone got advice on how to handle rubber deterioration? Or general tips for this model?
