Thought that it might interest you in some way:

So unlucky... yesterday my n900 got accidentally knocked down from my desk, that was a 69cm fall. The LCD got shattered and a drop-like leakage appeared. Well, the "screen protector" did not help at all ;]

Here are the images of the web-like shatter on the screen and drop-like leakage (black spot, visible on white display):




I have noticed the leakage spread a bit with time... Should I replace the LCD screen asap before the leakage makes the screen unusable at all? The phone functions normally, touch screen is intact (works normally), only the screen itself got broke and the metal part of the case got bend a bit.

The n900 keyboard was open when it hit the carpet floor, so that may have actually increased the damage taken from the impact, which resulted in the broken display.

How expensive is a new LCD screen for n900 with the service fee? I would rather take it to Nokia Care point than try to fix it myself... But I have no idea on how much time it would actually take to fix it.
Any tips?

Cheers,
Ralph
