Is it possible to extract data from a broken 8GB Zen Micro Photo? Maybe by pulling the flash memory out?

A colleague has a broken unit that won't power on, even when running on USB power, and she's got a ton of irreplaceable Russian music on it. Anyone have any idea what kind of flash RAM is in there and if there's a way to access it and extract data from it?

Will it not mount as a drive when inserted into a computer's USB slot?
