Optimus S Parts

Long time troller, first time poster here. I guess this is the best place to ask but where could I get a replacement screen for the Optimus S. It suffered a very unfortunate accident this morning.

Most parts sellers that I know of get their parts as people trade in their phones; considering the phone was released back in October I highly doubt many people jumped ship already (sure, maybe someone bought a Nexus S but you don't buy a low-end phone like the Optimus just to unload a ton of money on a high end a few weeks later). Because of that you won't really start to see that much in the way of parts yet; and in my experience it takes a bit longer to get screens since they're usually the broken part, plus it'd be expensive to get one (a new screen for most of my devices cost almost as much or as much as getting the device used).

Though if I'm wrong, feel free to correct me

The place I've looked for parts in the past is either ebay for used or a parts place like iPod Replacement Screens, iPhone LCD Repair, BlackBerry, Zune, PSP & HTC Replacement Screens and Batteries. But I think the optimus is new enough that you may have a hard time finding parts yet.
