I didn't buy the extended warranty, but when I dropped my PRS-505 and the substrate broke (not the screen), it was covered under the 1 year parts warranty--I had to pay $29 for labor to have it replaced.

If I'd had the extended warranty it would've been free. Not sure how common broken substrates are, so I don't know if it's worth getting the warranty for that possibility.
