Warranty definitely doesn't cover physical damage.
Sounds bad, how about buying another used one with other bits broken and combining them to get one that works?
Really unless you plan to do the work yourself this sounds beyond economic repair.
sorry, you must be very sad - good excuse to upgrade to new shiny n900 though

i think is cheaper to buy one used device and replace your broken parts.
I will buy remaining parts if they are: 810 board, speaker assembly, back frame, etc
i can offer shiny new keyboard german layout

I have my first 810 on order. Used from ebay for $159. I'd say get another used one and save that one for spare parts.
Note: I looked at the N900 today. The screen is WAY too small. They keyboard is a little too small, I hear there is no kickstand (I didn't notice one) and that it doesn't have host usb (not sure how useful that is).
Overall, just because of the screen size, I wouldn't want the N900. It's also almost $600. It's not worth it for what it is.

I really want to get it fixed, and I'm pretty sure thats out of the warranty, but I'm not sure(it is still within the 1 year warranty). If it is, does anyone know how much it would cost to get it fixed? Can is even be fixed? Would it be cheaper to just get a new one?
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
