										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Last Saturday, almost a full week ago, <a href="/2013/05/11/oops-the-touchscreen-broke/">my Google Nexus 7 touchscreen was broken</a> in three pieces. I was able to back it up without resigning myself to a few-weeks-old backup and appealed to the insurance I did on purchase.</p>
<p>After giving them all information they asked for in the contract, they contact me <strong>two whole days afterwards</strong> demanding pictures and full details of the accident in order to open the process. Wait, what? If they needed that, couldn&#8217;t they put it in the contract text? Really? Was it so hard?</p>
<p>Ok, I send them that. <strong>Two more days pass without a reply</strong>. This is unacceptable and I wrote them in protest.</p>
<p><strong>Not one hour had passed</strong>, and they came back to me with a case number and that the process had been accepted.</p>
<p>So now I go back to the shop and&#8230; it has to be sent to the brand (Google/Asus) in order to see how hard/expensive it is to repair and then in at most <strong>90 days</strong> (good grief) I will get either a repaired Nexus or a new one.</p>
<p>Now&#8230; this is seriously hurting my workflow, I was already fully addicted to being able to do ANSOL work in almost any place, being up to date with current events, socialize and so forth.</p>
<p>This is really frustrating.</p>

<p>How ridiculous this feels.<br />
An android tablet, Google Nexus 7, with a mini male to normal female USB adapter connected to an USB hub, where I connected a mouse and keyboard (because typing with the mouse is an even worse experience than typing with your finger, even with slide typing).</p>
<p>Today, from one hour into the other, I don&#8217;t know how but the screen broke in two cracks, it&#8217;s then three pieces and only the smallest one has touch, which I deduce it&#8217;s where it connects with the PCB.</p>
<p>At least this setup allowed me to make a last second full backup before wiping to factory defaults and send to insurance.</p>
<p>I hope it doesn&#8217;t last long before I get it back, I&#8217;m already with shivers due to abstinence&#8230;</p>
