No, it's not an iPad Halloween costume; it's the iOpener!

The iOpener is our new iPad opening tool that softens pesky adhesive, allowing you to get inside without having to resort to our other iPad opening tool.

Thanks to our trusty iOpener, a microwave, and half an hour's worth of time, the adhesive is warmed to the perfect temperature for us to free the glass/digitizer assembly to the spooky tune of our iFixit guitar picks.

The iPad Mini continues Apple's repair-impeding practice of keeping iPads together with copious amounts of adhesive. This is one area in which the friendly-to-open Nexus 7 and Kindle Fire HD are clear winners.
