actually the screen is pretty easy to swap out if you don't mind opening it. If you take your time they're quite easy to open.

I have a screen issue with my first gen iPhone. The top half-inch of the screen is non-responsive. I asked someone at the Apple Store and they said it would cost more to replace than it's worth. They suggested just getting a new 3g iPhone for $199. I think the screen is the most expensive part of the phone, and unfortunately probably a total loss if the screen is gone.

Here's for the 1st generation iPhone - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X1z0pw2VK7M

and for the 3G iPhone - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8fF0DF-mbn4 - it looks like the 3G may be easier to replace the screen
