Apple Stores Now Fixing Cracked iPhone Screens In-House
If you’ve ever had the misfortune, as I have, of dropping your iPhone on concrete, here is some good news from the Infinite Loop blog:
An iPhone falls to the ground in slow motion and makes its first impact on a corner. You watch as the cracks branch out over the screen like a spiderweb. If it hasn’t happened to you, it has happened to someone you know—and now, Apple can fix it on the spot at one of its retail locations.
Jim Dalrymple at The Loop has confirmed that Apple retail stores have begun performing this in-house repair with what amounts to a big suction cup in the back. The machine separates the broken glass from the rest of your precious iPhone, letting the technician install a shiny new one.
The cost will be $199, and it is not covered under warranty or Apple Care.

I had that misfortune back in June. Yes, they will do it for $199. But, you can also have it done here http://www.iresq.com/ for $99 plus overnight shipping there and back. This reputable dealer did a superb job.
