Replace your iPhone screen, if you dare


The iPhone is awesome, and it's awesome mainly due to one thing: that screen. The big, beautiful touchscreen makes it stand out from the cellphone crowd and makes it an absolute pleasure to use. But since the entire front is essentially a big screen, if you drop if you have a pretty good chance of putting a big old crack across it. And that would be horrible.
If you're out of warranty and don't want to drop the coin on a whole new phone, the bold amongst you might want to try fixing it yourself. To do that, you'll need a replacement screen, and finally one is available. Brando has just announced a replacement screen that you can install yourself, although to open up the iPhone you'll need Brando's iPhone toolkit. It doesn't look to be that difficult of a process, so if you're in need of a new screen go ahead and drop $85 on the new screen and $11 on the toolkit and you'll be back in action in no time.
