I am considering sending my 2100 into Apple for repair. Here in Canada it
only costs $189.00 Canadian which is like $110.00US.
The thing is , there is nothing really wrong, just a few little things I
would like to take care of to get it into premium shape before Apple closes
the door on servicing the Newt.
In your collective experience , will they replace the case for worn rubber
coating? My screen is only slightly worn but I wanted them to replace the
touch screen and the backlight. Will they replace the battery?
I assume I would have to request all this if I sent it in, to have any hope
of it being done.
will they do it if requested?
