I did replace the speaker on my 2100 once and I can tell you it's not an
easy task. Doable, but give you time and make sure you're fully rested, have
a clean work surface with no distraction. Then, it can be done.

I agree that if you did a "hard reset" and still no sound, it must be the
speaker. Do you remember if your 2100 got hit or something? My sound went
muffled after I dropped it from about 3 feet high on a ceramic floor. I
replaced the speaker, but had to have it serviced by Apple...
