Hi hugo,
I'am also from Portugal, and I hgave ordered the same product for the iphone and it only taked one week to receive the order.
I guess I had lucky with the custom office, but I know that sometimes they delay more than it should.
Good luck in your repair.
I followed strictly the tutorial of ifixit with the video on youtube.
Just carefull at begining when oppening, just 45 degrees to disconect the cables before split the two parts.
Again, when heating to get the glue, carefull to not damage a thin rubber.
Finally with me the only problem was GPS signal. My GPS now rarely gets a good signal, I don't know if I have damaged anything.

Installing iPhone 3G Display Oct 7 @ 4:01 PM
I've done it. The most difficult part was to separate the broken glass from the plastic structure. I've damage the thinner rubber on the top.
Everythig works fine except the GPS. After the repair my gps is not working like it was before. Now rarely gets a constant signal, and the most part the signal is week. Maybe i have damage the antena ?
Any ideas ? It is possible that the adhesives strips can block the signal ?
Thank you very much.
