Blackberry repair service recommendations
A good friend of mine gave me a free unlocked Blackberry Bold today (woohoo!). The catch is that it fell in the pool. Everything works, minus the 'A' key. Well, this would make a good backup handset, and I really want to get it fixed.
Any recommendations as to who will do it? Obviously the warranty is now nil, but if it's less than the cost of buying the handset, I'd be willing to pay to get it fixed.
Thanks

If it is something to do with the key pad you could probably fix it yourself.
I would take it apart and pull the key pad off and see if you can't get the button to work. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SGXToCiqqM0
If it is the main board you might as well throw it out as the cost to fix will probably be more then just buying a new one.
You may want to try switching this out.http://cgi.ebay.com/BLACKBERRY-BOLD-...41510002r15486
