As of the date of this publication,
you could not purchase insurance for any iPhone, so your warranty is very
important! If your warranty is expired or you damage your phone and it is not
covered under the warranty, you can view the chart below (from the iPhone
website on 9-4-09) to determine the repair cost. You might want to consider
purchasing the
Apple Care Protection Plan which extends your coverage up to 2 years for
$69.

Service
If you own an
iPhone that is ineligible for warranty service
