Help Cracked Screen - Lenovo support STINKS!

[rsg71]

A1 fell out of my hand, about a 3 foot drop onto concrete. Unit is less than one month old. I called Lenovo to ask about sending it in for repair. After getting all my information rep says it will be $80 non-refundable for them to check it out, and that will go towards the repair, but could not provide any estimate of cost. I refused to give them $80 without any maximum repair charge!

I took the unit apart tonight. The front bezel is all one piece in that the capacitive touch is integrated, but the actual display is separate and is untouched. I just can't find anywhere to replace this front touch screen

Even Lenovo doesn't carry it!

If you're constantly having issues with your TPT or Ideapad, and tech support is giving you the runaround. I would asked to be transferred to a Customer Advocate in the Customer Complaint Resolutions department (Customer Satisfaction Programs).

Yea, they won't replace a cracked screen from experience in a procurement position with a previous company. However I've noticed mine has been rebooting a lot recently. Is this just a resources issue or should I have it looked at? Its less than two weeks old; could easily just return to Best Buy.

I ordered one from ebay, like 40 bucks, it was for the le pad, it comes with a different rom version, tried to update the rom, but it failed all the time. Not sure if it is compatible. It looks the same and same size and same pin connectors, but will not work out of the box. Where can I find a replacement. anyone?
