You all will not believe this...I was trying to figure out a way to make a call without being able to use the top part of the screen to call Apple this morning regarding this problem. I was getting real frustrated but was having some luck. I added Apple's phone number to one of my contact list in my address book of one of my recent calls. This way I was able to just push the recents and then hit the the selected person with their number changed to Apple number.

Everything was great, call went through and as I was waiting on hold, I was able to hit Speaker. Then the phone still connected to the computer slipped off the table and hit the floor 2 feet up, Guess what...I lost the connection to Apple and...the screen cracked. I have no cell service.

Now what do I do?

It does say plain as day that any attempt to repair it other than through Apple voids the warranty. SO if you do get the glass repaired by a third party and something else happens to the phone Apple can decline warranty work.

This situation is tough and I for one have yet to come up with a reasonable or cost effective answer though many posts about this have been in these discussions.

Check out this page I found. Wondering what the thoughts are?
http://www.billiardinstruction.com/iPhone.htm My screen doesn't look this bad however, the research here certainly is something to think about.


Mike the web site you note just proves what a great job Apple did with the iPhone. People that are so stupid they need to be told that "Warning... Real Breakable Glass" can use an iPhone!

Gees, do people really believe nothing unfortunate ever happens and if it does it's somebody elses fault?
