if you bought it from sprint, then yeah, go that route and get it warranty replaced. If you bought it from another source, you probably can't get insurance or warranty through the carrier--at least that is how vzw is. Changing the screen is not a trivial task that a store would do for you.
I've done so many of them that I can do the whole disassembly and re-assembly in about 15 minutes, but you have to be careful if you plan to do the surgery yourself. Also, you have to take apart everything to get to the LCD. It's the last part of the disassembly. You can find the replacement screens for around $55.
