What About This New "Leasing A Phone" Thing?

You can get a new screen and digitizer on ebay, Greg. 50 bucks or so, I'm thinking.
They come with the tools you need and there's a hog ton of videos on youtube on how to replace them.
I just replaced the battery in Weeze's 5 the day before yesterday.
It cost 20 bucks. They wanted 200 to do it at the Apple Store.

They already replaced it for free once, despite it being out of warranty, because they're bad batteries. They won't do it twice, though. But they'll sell a brother another bad battery for 200 bucks. Ugh.
