RE: Completely disassembled (Amazon Kindle Graphite (3G Wi-Fi) 2010 Teardown)
I also completely disassembled a Kindle 3 (my wife's) after she spilled her entire latte on the keyboard area (I don't recommend this 
). I got her a new one and figured I had nothing to lose. I managed to completely disassemble it and wiped down the spilled parts with an alcohol wipe. Upon reassembly it is actually now about 95% functional again. Some of the keys as well as the center OK button are not currently working. After doing some more reading, I ordered some 99% pure isopropyl alcohol (the wipes are only 70% alcohol). As soon as it arrives I will tear it down again and soak the keyboard area. Hopefully it will then be fully functional. If you are very careful it is not too difficult to do the disassembly, once you figure out how a couple of the tiny ribbon cable connectors work.
