Here’s what iFixit found:

– 1GB RAM, 128MB Samsung OneDRAM & 384MB mobile DDR
– Battery is replaceable without requiring a soldering iron (but not user replaceable)
– Battery is half the physical size of Apple’s iPad battery and has 60% of the iPad’s battery capacity
– Display glass is Corning Gorilla Glass (which is what the original Motorola Droid uses)
