They took one out of our knife block in the kitchen, so he was not really prepared well... luckily ;-)

1) Take it to Apple Store and get an estimate for repair.

2) Give estimate to Insurance.

Good luck with it!

Good one, I'll give Apple a call today (closest Apple store is in Amsterdam......)

I've contacted an authorized Apple repair company, they can replace the 'rear-housing' and the stand for a total of 454.96 euro's.

Let's see what my insurance company thinks about this.
