assuming you have sprint, you wont have to wait the 30days either if you find the right repair center. i worked for an indirect sprint dealer and our store was an authorized repair center. if you brought that phone to us and had TEP and there was no water damage or a smashed LCD we would get an advanced exchange ordered because we get paid on doing it. if we had an extra keyboard for it laying around we would have tried to fix it because we make more money doing that. if the first place doenst do it for you, just try the next one, there are probably several in your area just go to sprintdotcom and do a search for repair centers.
