My iphone 3g fell out of my sweatpants pocket today and the screen cracked. The phone still works perfectly, but the cracks pretty annoying.

Does anyone know if the screen can be repaired and how?

No.

I am sick and tired of people coming on NS and asking simple questions that can be resolved by a simple search on google or other search engine.

It crowds the forums and makes me drop IQ points every time I view a thread like this.

199 to fix it through apple. 75 for some dude to fix it. 400 for a new 8g 3g. i was so pissed when my girl dropped mine. oh and if you just live with it, like i did, just put some packing tape on it.

go on ebay and buy the replacement glass for like 30 or 40 bucks and you can repair it yourself

You could do all of those suggestions above. Its an easy fix.

Although I suggest you just cut your losses, and buy a Droid

Don't you hate apple for making an expensive piece of electronics so damn fragile?

Mine has a big crack right across the middle of the screen and I've never even dropped it
