[* black] It was a lot of work just getting this far, but things are starting to get more interesting. Out comes the motherboard—the brains of this headset.
[* black] Perched on top is a cooling fan—which looks very much like a small laptop fan—courtesy of Cooler ~~PC~~Master~~Race~~.
[* black] Twirling away the handful of screws isn't enough to free the heat sink, which is very stubbornly glued in place. After a good ten minutes of heating and prying, it gives up the board.
-[* icon_note] There's a lot of processing power packed into a pretty small space, so it makes sense to see a heavier-duty thermal solution here than we'd normally see in devices this size.
+[* icon_note] This is a lot of cooling for a small, wearable device—but it makes sense given the job it has to do. There's a lot of heat-generating silicon in there. Just don't put it in your pocket. Unless you like hot pockets.
