Whoa, Steven. There are many communities in the lower 48 who are not close to an Apple store.
I'm in southwest MI and Grand Rapids or Ann Arbor are the nearest and they're not very close.
And, we don't even have 3G.
Hmmm...maybe it *is* the frontier.

The Apple store is 90 minutes away? Where do you live, Alaska? And if that's the case how is your reception? Slow?

I called the closest Apple store (90 minutes away), and they said they could probably fix the crystal... for about $99.
