Over here in South Africa there are hundreds of cellphone repair shops. =
I
took a walk in the city center of Pretoria and found about 6 of them in =
15
minutes.

I just asked for a 'Nokia 3310 screen' - cheapest price I got was R50, =
most
expensive was R150 - guess I can even haggle the R50 down a bit.

(R50 ~=3D $7.5 USD)

The Nokia 6610, 3210, 5110, 6150 and some others all use the same LCD
controller, but have different connectors, making it difficult to use =
them
in your own projects. The controller is a 'chip-on-glass' IC, which uses =
a
gold plated contact/connector to connect to the cellphone PCB. The 3310 =
has
metal pins instead of a rubber connector, which makes it a bit easier to =
get
wires onto it.
