Nice guide. My Mondo Wi-Fi went flaky (read “died”) so I disassembled using this guide to check out the wi-fi adapter plugged into the internal USB port. Turned out the little adhesive they apply to keep the adapter in the USB port sort of flowed over the adapter. Cleaned the adapter and plugged into the USB port on the rear of the radio and I’m back with a working Mondo. Glad iFixit does more than just computers and phones and pads (though it seems the Mondo is really a little Linux box).
