Yes, i have taken mine apart. The hardest part is getting the back off without damaging it. I didn't really have the rite tools though, all i had were some scrap pieces of plastic and a credit card. All i can really say is just take your time when your doing it. To be specific, i had problems getting something between the seam of the back case and the side of the iPhone to release the latches. Just don't pry the side outwards (like i did :( ) and you should be fine. Good luck!!
If you have any specific questions just ask me and ill be more then happy to help. :)
Heres some pics of my take apart: Replacing the iPhone Screen
thanks again jasper, this has to do with my ringer silence switch, i figure if i can just pop the back off i can slightly manipulate the metal backing where i can regain the full range of the switch!!! we will see what happens :S
