The only problem will be the repair cost, currently 95% of broken iPad screens are just the front glass/touch screen, the LCD is usually fine, now the cost of repairing the iPad air 2 when you crack the glass will be considerably more when compared to the original iPad Air, I find this design change by Apple a non excusable, disgraceful way to make the new iPad Air less repairable

correct me if i am wrong. it seems the glass, digitiser and LCD are fused into 1 unit, i would think if any of these 3 got broken, the whole screen unite needs to be replaced.

for lower risk profile take it to apple or a replacement unit, it saves getting stung by a third party repairer who may stuff the job up and leave you with a half functioning device which then you cant go back to apple. I think the replacement is $300 for an iPad via apple for a broken glass / lcd. but you get a brand new iPad !
