This should be a lesson NOT to hack your iPhone, esp. when it costs $500-$600!

That's what you get when you're silly enough to work on a device with a charged lithium ion battery installed. The amount of energy those things can store is truly scary. Was there some reason they didn't (or couldn't) disconnect the battery first?"
