Hey guys,
I found my old Droid the other day and I want to harvest the parts. I found a good video on how to get it apart, I'm just waiting on a screwdriver to come home today. But I'm wondering if anyone has had any experience using any of these parts? Or any cell phone parts actually?
The touch screen has a dead zone but it is still a real nice color screen. That's the only thing that was wrong with it and it was upgrade time so I just put it away and forgot about it. But I was reading an Arduino book and the author mentioned harvesting the vibration motors from an old cell phone so I'm just gonna piece it all out.
Anyway if there are some of you out there with experience with this I'd appreciate any info you'd care to share.
Thanks

Would be great for an embedded computer.
The vibration motor can be used to make a brushbot.
Or, if the WiFi still works on the droid, just use it as a remote control for the bot rather than for parts. Alan
I look forward to your link. Thanks again.
