New N900 or wait for E7 / N9
 
My N900 dropped from the bathroom counter onto the tile floor and the display no longer turns on. Other than that, the phone appears to be operational. Nokia will not fix it because it is not unwarrantable in their estimation.

I was planning on waiting for either the E7 (Symbian, but closer to what I need in a handset) or the N9 (whenever it is announced/released). In the meantime, I have been using my warhorse E71.

In my opinion, usages are different. If you just want a phone, buy E7 or N8 or things like that.
But if you are something like a hacker (like me and many other people here) who likes to have a computer running GNU/Linux in pocket, buy a new N900.

Tough one. It could be the screen only that is broken, you can fix that by replacing it with a new screen.

Hook it up using video out and see if it works, proves a screen fault then.

You should get to a service, there are multiple reasons for dead screen, it could be just a single cable ^^.

Not sure... isn't N9 going to be Symbian again? If so, nothing related to technology and being up-to-date in my opinion... N900 will remain an option for hackers and GNU/Linux guys, and those phones will remain an option for people who wantmit that way...
