A Philips screwdriver and 15 minutes of your life will suffice to clean the inside of your mouse too.
Unless it's an Apple mouse, which is sealed for all eternity and cannot be user-serviced.
Does it occur to you that the Magic Mouse, lacking buttons and balls, doesn't ever get dirty on the inside?
On one hand, 2^256 is a damn big keyspace. I've heard people say a collision is about as likely as winning every lottery in the world simultaneously, and then doing it again next week. Bug give enough computers with enough blocks enough time, and find a SHA1 collision you will. Depending on what kind of data it happens to, you might not even notice it.
2^256 = 10^77, which is only three orders of magnitude smaller than the number of atoms in the observable universe. The chances against a key collision are *puts on sunglasses* astronomical.
I think the main problem here is that Palm is trying to get a free ride from Apple's software development efforts. Apple created the iPod product in order to make money, and offered the iTunes player as a free solution so that Windows users could manage their iPods. If I were to write a free software utility whose main purpose was to support my hardware product, and a competitor spoofed my hardware product so that they didn't have to waste the time and money to write their own software utility, I would feel cheated.
iTunes was written for the purpose of managing Apple's hardware products. Getting a free ride on the back of Apple's software developers is not a right that any vendor has.
Not to mention WebKit, whose website states:
Apple employees have contributed the majority of work on WebKit since it became an independent project. Apple uses WebKit for Safari on Mac OS X, iPhone and Windows; on the former two it is also a system framework and used by many other applications. Apple's contribution has included extensive work on standards compliance, Web compatibility, performance, security, robustness, testing infrastructure and development of major new features.
An Ada exception is when a routine gets in trouble and says 'Beam me up, Scotty'.
