buying replacement screens

I have dropped my Visor Neo, and the screen has cracked, meaning that the touch screen doesn't work properly. I really need to repair it or get a new palm, however, it is out of warranty, and I have very little money.

I was wondering whether it is possible to buy replacement screens and install them yourself, without having to pay handspring $100. If so, is this easy, and how much are they?

I'm sure there have been similar threads to this before, but I couldn't find them.

Please Help!


Thanks,

Leo

PDAParts.com (formerly gethightech.com) carries tons of Visor and other PDA replacement parts - including replacement screens.

A complete screen replacement can be found here for $55, and the instructions to install it here.

Look over the instructions before ordering, if you don't feel comfortable doing this I would just recommend getting a refurbished Visor from Handspring.

Good luck!

I got one from "palm screens International" because I am in the UK and PDAparts.com don't ship here.

It cost me �42 - about $28ish.

Thanks for your help!
