Cheers for that. Though im not sure how much of my screen will come apart with a sucker, it's practically destroyed.

I'd maybe use a glue gun then and glue something to the screen so you can pull it off. It doesn't take much force! My own one had a crack where the sucker went, but just the one and it didn't affect it.

Is this just as easy to do with a Touch? A friend of mine has one with a cracked screen, and I am sure he'd happily pay £11 to sort it!

It should be exactly the same I'd have thought, the only difference is that the glass won't have the earpiece hole in it.

Check online though, there are bound to be guides that tell you.

Spot on, just had a look around and it seems a little more difficult to get the screen out. Appears you need some plastic tools, although doesn't look all that dificult....
