Guys, do you know of a trusted technician around QC who can repair an N900? My screen suddenly stopped working. Digitizer and backlight still works though. Last night I noticed that the screen is not completely occupied by what is being displayed (there were black borders in the sides). A restart fixed that but this morning the screen started flickering and then it went all black.
I connected it to a TV so I know that it's still working except for the screen.
I hope you guys can help. BTW is symbianize down?

EDIT: Got it repaired at Cellway SM North EDSA. Luckily they have a flex assembly in stock (last one). They replaced the whole slider mechanism. The bad thing is the screw located at the top right (when looked from behind) got worn out in the process so they had to remove the screw head by drilling it out similar to sixwheeledbeast's experience here: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php...71#post1324171

Anyway I'm happy that it's fixed even with one headless screw stuck at the back. I paid PhP1,500.00 (US$36.48) for the parts and service VS Nokia Care's quote of PhP2,418.72 (US$58.82 at 41.12 exchrate).
