    Funny that this just happened to two of my friends' Storms. Both of them said they dropped it slightly to cause it. Sounds kind of scary. One of them claimed insurance and the other is just living with it cuz he's broke.

    Hope my screen doens't randomly crack. How did yours happen?

    If you pay for insurance through Verizon/Assurion, they will replace your phone for a $50 deductible, no matter what happens to it. If you don't have insurance you're pretty screwed. Call 611 and ask them if you aren't sure or tell your dad to check your bill.

    if you have insurance, use it. if you don't, call 611 and ask if they would be willing to replace it for a $50 fee. they do that sometimes, depending on how long you have had the phone. good luck.

    I just replaced my cracked screen with one I bought from cnn.cn in case you want to go that route. I didn't have insurance, but the screen was $100 and it's good as new.

    Sounds like you might not be interested in doing that, though?

    It's doubtful you would be able to get a different phone than a Storm.... but it doesn't hurt to ask.
