mine got broke.

anyone know where i can find a replacement LCD screen for my S3 IS?

How old is your camera? Shouldn't it still be covered under warranty? Or was the damage not covered? I think you'll have to go to Canon to get it fixed. It's possible that you could buy an LCD screen. But I can't imagine that it's user-serviceable. On the other hand, if it's already broken and costs a lot to fix, maybe you don't have anything to lose.

not even a month old, i got it for a birthday gift. and it came with a 2 week warrenty, but it took a week to arive to the store it was oredered from, and then i was left with no time to send the warrenty info in.

ive gotten 3 quotes so far, all under $200.
so im lookign also wher ei can buy one to have it replaced by a frined localy.

How is it that you only got a two week warranty? I believe Canon covers it for a year. Is it a used camera?

I don't know how you'd get a replacement. If the camera had been around longer you could try to find a broken camera and buy it for parts. But that camera isn't very old at all. I'm sure you can source LCDs from OEM companies, but unless you can find the exact same one, you're likely to run into all kinds of problems. If you really like the camera, I'd pay the $200. But before you do that, find out about the factory warranty. It sounds to me like something fishy is going on.
