The most baffling part of the GTA02 Quickstart page...

Micheal have your daughter do a video for the page.

... is the MicroSD card. Having had my mitts on a pre-release GTA02
device for a bit and read this page (http://quickstart.openmoko.org/)
and looked at the device (with great fear of damaging it), it took me a 
long time to successfully insert the MicroSD card.  I got the SIM in
ok, but that's much bigger and to my eyes much more scrutable.

I've sent a photo to Michael, but it's kinda big to spam the list with 
since most don't have GTA02's yet, but for now. read section 4.5 as:

The Micro-SD card holder is held in place by a latching finger on either 
side. It is easiest to open the Micro-SD card holder by releasing these 
fingers one at a time rather than by lifting from the middle, as lifting 
from the middle tends to increase the latching pressure.
	Use a small screwdriver or knife to *carefully* lift first one
	side then the other; the "fingers" are along the edge of the
	MicroSD slot nearest the center of the device. Be careful not to
	damage the contacts underneath here; the end where you're
	working doesn't contact the Micro-SD card contacts, but you
	don't want to short them out.


Cheers
