yep me too. Apparently, o2 does not allow the repair centres to sell the lcds to the public. Now I have to pay almost AU$400 to have it repalced by the Australian repair centre.

Its a joke considering the price is only AU$150 from the Thailand repair centre (I got a sale quote for the lcd but then they told me they cant sell it to me because I am not a repair centre :x ).

I just ordered a new screen for my IPAQ 6815 for €75 incl. shipping from Ebay. It's probably arriving next week. Got it from seller hongkongop. If you can't find a cheap one, remember that the next PDA's use the same (NEC) screen:
- O2 Atom/Atom Exec/Atom life
- Mita C Mio A700/A701
- HP iPAQ 6800 6812 6815 6818 6828

Changing and getting a NEW LCD screen for O2 Atom is easy!!

I have broken my LCD screen for O2 atom before and went through the horrible same pain of only being able to receive the phone call and calling the last person who you previously talked to.

Getting a new LCD screen is easy. Now, there are many sellers on eBay who sells new LCD screens. However, one of the hardest part was to find out how to change it.

Believe it or not, O2 is one of the most easiest handset to dissemble. I found my guide on google which was in chinese, however, the pictures themselves were pretty much self explanatory.

Hope this helps. :)

My LCD screen (front part) was crack last week and I decide to pop in to O2 authorize service center to ask for replacing. You know how much their charge? Dam.... expensive RM535 (Diagnosis+labor+LCD) even it is still under warranty.

Of course, I'm not proceed. Next I walk out and went to the freelance services center who situated in opposite building and try my luck.Guys, I am lucky (although go to paid for it) and manage to fix this crack by paying RM190 which include the screen protector.

This is much harder than I thought it would be!

***Warning do not attempt replacing just the touch screen unless you are extremely technically proficient (i.e. you can solder under a microscope.

If you want to replace a LCD and touch screen in one unit it would be easier, but my connection is no longer good and I'm getting flickering!! Tips anyone?

I was hoping to wait for a HTC diamond to come to Australia, but looks like I might be forced into going for something else :(
Unless I could stand a few months of no PDA...
