I personally don't have a bit of a problem with buying refurb, but I will only buy one of these if I can get an extended warranty 1)cheap, and 2) at a place I can walk in and get a replacement. None of this mailing in stuff. Thus, I will only buy mine at a Sam's. Their three year warranty, beyond the manufacturers 1 year, is only $39. That is complete coverage for 99% of problems it might encur for 4 years. And any problems and you just walk into Sam's and they hand you a new one or that year's equivalent. Done. I don't think you can't beat it and no way would I buy a device like this without an extended warranty.

My two cents worth. Still haven't found the money for one, and may never, but I look them up, read about them, and go to forums about them every day. Sad really.
