Hacking The N-Gage - SideTalkin' To BackTalkin'

ceemrl writes "All About N-Gage have the scoop on ending the silly-looking phone side-talkin' required if you own an original Nokia N-Gage game deck/phone, with a neat hardware hack." Amusingly, the hack involves: "Taking a 3mm drill bit and very carefully working through [the back of the N-Gage near the phone speaker housing] until you break through the plastic", and the authors note: "As long as you didn't damage the speaker when drilling, the sound should be a similar level to side talkin'."
