Sorry, I didn't catch this message until now - been away from my inbox for 
"only" the past 8 hours or so.

Don't worry about checking any further.  I have one of the new devices 
now.  Yay!

FYI, what I've done in the past when inspecting a device such as this is 
to take a bunch of detailed digital photos.  I'll snap one of the whole 
board and then snap closeups of anything I find with a number on it.  Then 
I can always go back and look at the pictures again later if I find I need 
to look at the board again - saving additional risk from opening it up 
again.
