Droid Display Dead, but keyboard lights up....Disgusted

I bought the Droid when it first came out for my son last christmas (Dec 15, 2010 to be exact) He was using it in the car as a GPS and when he got home and brought the phone in, the display was dead.  Called Verizon and went to the store, they looked at it and said NOPE, nothing we can do....it was 9 days after the warranty, the phone is beat up. They didn't even have a technician look at it. Well we do have phones for use, not to just look at.  Anyone else having display problems, now no phone, and I had no insurance.  2 year plans are the worst that is all I can say!

I just experienced a very similar problem as I was heading to work. My Droid was fully charged once I got in to work I pressed the power button to turn on the screen and make a call but nothing appeared on the screen, the menu, back button, search button lit up but nothing on the screen. I took out the battery waited about a half hour put it back in tried to turn it on and again the screen remained black, nothing appeared on the screen. I even tried a hard reset and that too resulted in a blank screen.

Once my shift is over I will call customer service when they open and see what happens.

 

I'm even thinking about reverting back to the flip phone and stay away from smartphones, seems too much of a pain.
