Microtech Dongle

Anyone willing to lend me their dongle for a few days / week?

I'd like to make a wiring schematic of the damn thing and parts list (from like digikey or something) and get it out in the public - I refuse to spend $130 for $5 of components.

Anyhow, I would like to borrow the dongle and copy it;
Hit me up if you're cool with it.

It's been a while since I opened one, but it's not a bunch of passive components. There is a PIC in there (I forget the part number) with some flash memory.

PIC? simple, IDA will slice that like a hot knife to butter.

I'm not scared to disassemble a pic processor. I'm just angry we've got to shell out $100 for a stupid *** dongle or an overpriced hand controller with motivational messages on the PCB.
