Thanks for the advise. I also need to check real images may be on eBay.

anh.... Congratulations, you are the MAN!!!

ok, now I have a question... will you do this again? and if so, what would you charge me to do mine and upgrade the RAM to 2GB?

Your answer will determine if you get the job or if I buy the Raon Everun Note and sell my UX.

Just want all folks see this.
It only has 8 RAM chips. I can remove and replace with 2GB, but I am not sure whether or not the board can see it. I will give it a shot when I am ready.

Perhaps...just remember there are no guarantees and would anyone be willing to have their UX completely fried if the job does not work ? Not taking anything away from this GREAT modder but still great risk for others.

Yeah a lot of risk is involved!

It would be really neat to see 2gb ram as well, how would the battery be ?

That's what I am thinking. Even I feel comfortable but all you guy will not. Thid should have time for approval. IMO, I can say I can do it works for 99.99%

Sull, battery life seems not to be changed.

I am doing that.
What's kind of chip you want to reball?

Hazmat, with BGA (ball grid array) chips, they don't have pins like others. Pin is a ball of lead or lead free act as a contact from the chip to PCB board. So, when BGA chip is removed, all balls will be damaged and need to rebuild before the chip can be soldered to PCB board.

Here is some pics
BGA CPU after removed and cleaned all lead.
