Ok, I'm gonna need some help on this one.

My PSP was used for the longest time as an MP3 player and such. But, overtime it got fairly smashed up. It's in working condition still, but the start button is missing, and for some reason, the bottom right corner of the system is slightly wedged up, letting dirt and dust in. The screen now has a few noticeable (not too much, but definetely there) spots of uncleanable dirt under the screen.

So, I'm thinking of trying to disassemble the PSP to clean it out. How would I go about doing this? Are there any safer alternatives that won't cost me much?

Also, is there any possible place to get a replacement start button? Also, the top of the "joystick" is missing...which happens to a lot of people, so I presume there has to be some sort of way of going about replacing that, of which I'm not aware.

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
