    I just walked into Best Buy an hour ago and they had a single boxed unit in the back room and I had to scoop it while I could. Has anyone purchased the extended warranty through Best Buy? They charged $329 for a two year extended with accident protection. Does this sound too expensive for Best Buy? I am curious what anyone else has paid... What do you think guys?
