Thanks for the link. I preordered a 950 along with a cover -- you would think they would include a cover at the $299 price. BTW, the link goes to the education store. The only discount students get is $3.50 off the cover

.

In looking at the user's manual online, it looks like the charging plug is a standard micr-USB, the same as is used to charge a cellphone. That at least will make it easy.

I also checked into the extended warranty. Apparently Sony is offering 2-year ($40) and 4-year ($99) extended warranties. After I see the device and make a decision whether to keep it or not, I'll buy the warranty, probably the 4-year. Is anyone buying an extended warranty from other than Sony?
