Ipod touch cracked screen

Hi,

I own an ipod touch 16 GB that I bought from Singapore as its cheaper there compared to prices in India. About 2 months old. I dropped it on my driveway and the screen is cracked and looks like there are spiderwebs over the screen. I called up a couple of showrooms in India and they don't deal with such service requests apparently..

The ipod in itself seems to be working fine.. Touch screen is working, songs are playing..

I called up a service center as well and they said they cannot replace broken screens.. Having read a lot of discussion threads I presume that unless I can come up with something that proves that the screen broke on its own due to some manufacturing defect I will not get a replacement..

Can someone please suggest a nice story that proves that the screen cracked on its own due to some manufacturing defect or can someone suggest how I can fix this?

You will not be able to fool anyone into thinking that this screen just "cracked" on it's own due to a manufacturing defect. The people who repair these on a daily basis have enough experience to know when a unit was dropped. I do not know how Apple operates in other countries, but I assume they have a similar situation to what they do here in the US and do not allow others to repair the iPod. You will most likely have to pay for this repair or replace the iPod at your own expense.
