UPDATE:
After two months of work with my cell provider and after the 3rd party insurance company declined to cover the damage and after finding out 2 years ago, my line was dropped from the insurance coverage, I have been paying that since 2005, I was given a brand new Samsung Galaxy Note II. Needless to say I am very happy with the outcome. Until I had to load all my contacts that was totaled to 1000..!@#$%^%%#Q seriously?! I do not have 1000 people on my contact list.....Had to take a full day to change it back to only 300. Then came the updated from my provider, I am no longer happy with the 21st Century and its devices (between the apps, games, widgets and sorting out my contact list again).... :( 

Yes, I am addicted,I am using my device.... :P






In the 21st Century, my device jumped out of my hand and onto a concrete driveway....

 

I was standing on my driveway and my cell in my hand, talking to friends then all of sudden the case separated and the top of the case and my cell headed towards the driveway..it was in slow motion, nothing I could do to stop the carnage I was about to witness. I looked down at my cell and I cried inside " WHY! WHY did you jump out of my hand to your unexpected death! WHY!" 
As I stooped down to recover the mangled body of my cell, I check for a heart beat, YES, it was still ALIVE! I jumped for joy only as a woman could do..... I was jumping around up and down, friends and family were looking at me as if I was in  a fit of NUTSO! I did not care, my cell was still alive. 
As I looked closer to the screen, that is when it happened, I cried, not like a little girl who had their lollipop taken away by some politician but as a woman whose favorite shoes were run over by a BIG, HUGE 18 wheeler...... The tears ran down my cheeks, I was sniffling, I could not see because of the large tears..... I was becoming MAD at my precious...MY PRECIOUS! WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO ME?!
The crack on my screen is not as bad pictured above but still UGH, I was so enjoying the 21st Century with this device.
I can use the S Pen on the screen just not my finger, I like the idea of not bleeding to death as portrayed in a commercial for a certain Cell Provider.
Now what to do, Should I go ahead and have my Cell Provider replace my Samsung Galaxy Note II or just deal with the crack until I no longer can use it? The idea of doing a backup of all my files and apps and games and photos and video basically everything on my cell is my world now, does not appeal to me.
