i own a w900i and a k800i.i went on a week long tour and took k800 and left w900i with my (careless) cousin.he dropped it in water and didnt inform till i was back.now i got it repaired by a local technician.the screen does work and keypad lights but no backlight for the screen.i am going to uk next week.do you think it is repairable.(still sounds gr8 though).if yes how much would it cost.there is no other problem accept for a slightly slowed down processor.

I'm pretty sure the lcd and backlight are in 1 unit as i replaced a housing on one myself. You could try buying a new lcd but not sure how much they would cost.
