Hinge broken, replacements?

Postby mono » Wed Dec 22, 2010 1:41 pm

Hi,

today the left hinge of my S10e broke, just like Peety once described:

Peety wrote: ... Both of my hinge covers on my S10 cracked a while ago and I was holding them together with electrical tape but last night, one of the hinges broke off. The metal piece connecting the screen to the hinge completely broke. I read your post and looked at the other end of the lid and there's the same exact crack you were talking about. ...

Since my netbook is more then two years old, I doubt there's any warranty. So, I wanted to know If anyone has some knowledge/experience in the field of broken hinges.

- Can they easily be replaced?
- What kind of hinges are compatible? Ideapad only? S10 only?
- Spare parts anyone?

Thanks in advance,
