Re: Repair a dead Freerunner (was: Re: WSOD)

[Laszlo KREKACS]

Hi!

Just a thought

I have bought a digital camera (Canon SX100IS) for 145 EUR,
it fell off from a chair in a camera bag. The lcd screen broke.

Repairing it (the warranty not cover such accident) would cost
about 130EUR.

So I bought a replacement LCD for 40USD on ebay.

What I want to say with all this, that Freerunner got very cheap
these days. You can have a brand new for 185EUR!

Dunno where you are located, but I doubt if you can repair
it under 100EUR (even if a tiny part is what only need to be replaced).

FYI pulster.de offers LCD repair service.

Best regards,
 Laszlo

Does Openmoko or any other distribuitor offer a repair service? I mean,
if the mainboard is dead, but the gps, the wifi, the screen and the case
work, it might be cheaper to to get a new mainboard than to buy a new
FR. I can send it anywhere if someone can tell for sure what is damaged,
and offer a spare part to fix it.
