Step 2

Using a hair dryer, slowly heat the edges of the WorkPad.
Spend at least one minute heating each side of the device. This will melt the glue holding the case together, and allow it to be removed.
Be sure not to touch the device directly after heating as it will be extremely hot. Use a towel or oven mitt to grab it.
