Does anyone know if its possible to get a screen changed on a sony ericsson w595,and how much it would cost.
I was quoted €120 by carphone warehouse,or a new phone for €150.Thing is the phone is only a month old and I cant afford to spend this much again.

If it's only a month old is it not under a warranty?

I got mine replaced by FM mobiles on Georges St., Dublin 2 and it didn't cost anywhere near €120. I think it was around €50 and was ready in an hour.
