Default How to unplug the 3G?

I just got the usb device to update to 2.1 but, I don't want to damage the plugs...is there a secret to getting these locking plugs out or are they just hard to pull out?

Push down from the top and they come out a lot easier. When you have them off you'll see there's a latching system. But alas, they still suck.

Pushing down away from the locking tabs did the trick.

Thanks!

The best way to unplug is on the sensor unit push the plug down and to one side, and the main unit pull up and to one side. If you notice the plug on the sensor compaired to the main unit is upsidedown.

Wiggle the plugs back and forth as to not damage the connector to the board and kill the nice plastic locking tabs.
