Kudos to the Openmoko team!

This is what's great about an open phone. For any other device, the  
necessary fix would be a big secret, and making it would be monopoly of  
the manufacturer and their service partners.

With this kind of openness, anybody can either make the fix themself or  
hire someone on the open market to do it. I'm pretty sure that a cell  
phone repair shop near you will fix it for you using this instruction.
