broken ipaq

[noah]

somehow i managed to ruin the screen on my ipaq 1940 this morning when i was in a hurry (damn rushing in the morning while half awake). anyone got any suggestions for a place that fixes this kind of problem?

i heard you can swap the screen too? so anyone with a 1940 wich has a good screen but is otherwise broken and sat doing nothing, fancy selling it to me?

No possibility of getting it fixed on the warrenty?

That'll be under warranty.

If however for some strange reason it's not, then www.ipaqrepair.co.uk will help you. For a price though

Just go to the hp site and check your warantee status. If its in then hp's repair service is fantastic, they pick it up by ups and usually deliver it back in 48-72 hrs. Great.

really? even tho it was my fault i broke it? accidental as it was, and showing no signs of stress on the ipaq anywhere except for the screen which now bleeds. i checked the warranty and its valid for another month and a half so i'll try on monday. thanks for the help

They won't be able to tell its your fault, they will just replace the screen

Guys if you do a google search, you will simply see that a lot of people have problems with their ipaqs. The screens are just bad. I sent mine to HP, they said that in order to fix it, it would cost me $200 plus tax. This is nuts. The unit brand new is $299. Stay away from this product.

just heard from HP after 3 weeks!! the screen is not under warranty?! they want £120 + vat to fix it, so i'm writing a letter of complaint as this seems a little odd, may get nowhere, but worth a try

Thats strange, all parts and labour should be under the warranty unless it states otherwise?
