One plus to SquareTrade is that there's almost always a discount available on it if you look around the web or get on their mailing list. My two year coverage on the $99 Touch was about $14 including tax, with the Black Friday weekend code. $7 a year to cover everything, including drops & water damage? It's hard to find a decent cover that cheap!
(Note--I'm a bathtub reader and the Touch doesn't work well in waterproof covers, so for me this was more of a necessity than it might be for some. I don't generally believe in extended warranties, but for devices that I might drop, the accidental damage coverage is worth the added expense. YMMV)
