They have an unacknowledged, we'll deny it if you ask us, but a 'once in a lifetime, replace iPad with broken screen' policy. Many many Members have done this. Be humble, be polite, be honest - be politely persistent and you'll find they'll replace it free of charge. It's not a right - it's a very generous Apple policy that many Members have used...
Good Luck and let us know how you get on....
