In my opinion, usages are different. If you just want a phone, buy E7 or N8 or things like that.
But if you are something like a hacker (like me and many other people here) who likes to have a computer running GNU/Linux in pocket, buy a new N900.

I was planning on waiting for either the E7 (Symbian, but closer to what I need in a handset) or the N9 (whenever it is announced/released). In the meantime, I have been using my warhorse E71.

Tough one. It could be the screen only that is broken, you can fix that by replacing it with a new screen.

Hook it up using video out and see if it works, proves a screen fault then.

You should get to a service, there are multiple reasons for dead screen, it could be just a single cable ^^.
