You had best take out some insurance, then in about a month say you dropped it? ;)

The best solution is: You can send it off to ppctechs: http://www.pocketpctechs.com/main.asp?unit=HTC_Artemis-627&area=accessories-writeshield%AE+crystal
2nd best: You can replace it yourself with a kit: http://cgi.ebay.com/OEM-LCD-Screen-for-HTC-Artemis-P3300-MDA-Compact-3-kit3_W0QQitemZ260111241845QQihZ016QQcategoryZ41343 QQcmdZViewItem

standard house insurance normally covers - if your on o2 then you cant take out insurance after the first 14 days - unlike orange where you can pay £60 emergency insurance out and claim immediately followed by £6/month thereafter. In my extensive experience of network insurances (Im a plasterer, alot of phones get broken / damaged) 02 insurance aint worth shit - may as well use home contents insurance.

ive not had too much of an issue with them, barring the £35 base fee... delivered to your door in 24 hrs...
