My Canon SD700 IS has been dropped and the screen now
shows nothing but a pattern of cracks - NOT the outer glass,
the digital screen behind the glass.
Can it be replaced ?

OK the very first one on eBay is in the States

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/CANON-SD70... em33581292cc

but it's usually easy enough to find phone and laptop screens, don't see
why cameras should be different. Google and/or YouTube should also find
you helpful instructions.

I bought a faulty canon off the bay, lens stuck and used the screen to fix my canon. Two years later I used the flash unit from the donor too.

Certainly; all depends on the economics of it. It's new enough that
Canon will still be supplying spares and the Canon-approved repair
centres not charging an arm and one of your legs.

possibly you could find a buggerd one on ebay and buy it for parts. i've done that with a few things
like nintendo dswhatevers. there are a few us websites that do 'tear downs' i think they call them.
you may find one that'll help you. maybe this will be of some use:
