Well I opened it.  As several people mentioned it does look to be in some
sort of delta configuration, 3 pairs of coils for six total windings.  There
are also some chips soldered to the inside back cover for the rest of the
input wires, but I don't recognize any of them.  There are three marked
"6853 / D669" and one marked as "AUGN / 3175 / 529".  The chips don't appear
to be wired at all to the windings - could these be hall effect sensors or
something for a feeback mechanism?  I put some pictures on the web if
anybody wants to take a peek.

Now another question - is this not a stepper motor?  I really don't care
about the feeback mechanism right now, but I'd like to be able to get it
spinning.

Thanks to everybody for your help!
