mighty-mouse

As much as I love Apple products' designs, I still don't like the mighty mouse. The scrolling keeps stopping in between very frequently.

I tried the instructions provided on Apple's site and it does make the scrolling smooth but only momentarily. Isn't there any way to open it up and clean like a normal mouse? Or any other way to clean it better?

Thanks.
