I've thought it over for my upcoming K3. If I bought one I'd get the Square Trade - with the coupon codes floating around it would be around $20 I believe. I'd mostly be buying it for Accidental Damage because Amazon + American Express already provide 2 years of Manufacturer failure.
But if I were a betting woman I'd also guess that by the end of 2011 the price on the K3 Wifi will likely be $99 and the WiFi + 3G will be maybe $150. Those wouldn't be huge dents in our budget if I had to replace a Kindle. Given that I already have the excellent Amazon Customer Service plus the American Express Extended Warranty, I think I'm just going to try and be extra careful and take my chances.
I did insure the XBox 360 my son just bought to take to college though. He's clumsy and careless with his stuff, must be that young male thing.
