Cracked Screen on an X5

[superdope]

I have cracked my screen on my Axim X5. Any thoughts on how to repair it without sending it to Dell for $200!

Thanks in advance.

Update (03/25/2005): My options seemed to be $200, $150, $50. I opted for the $50 option and purchased a screen thru PDAParts.com and fixed it myself. Praise the Lord, it went pretty smoothly! I now have a working X5 again!

How about send it to Pocketpctechs.com and have them fix it for $149

If the display is OK, you might be able to have them replace just the touchscreen for $99

Good luck,

$150 is getting up there, although I've heard nothing but positive feedback about Pocket PC Techs. I'd send it to them.

Just as a side note, you can get a used X5 off ebay for about the same price.
