    I have a couple questions before order me FZ.

    1. How long is Sony's standard warrenty?

    2. Is the HC screen worth the $50 upgrade?

    3. Is there any cheaper place to order besides Sony Style? My total will be $1323 after taxes with 8400m gt, C2D T7100, 120 gig HD, 1 gig ram (will upgrade myself), and high color screen.

    Thanks for any help

    Ok, if I get an engraving will it delay my shipping date at all?

    Engraving pretty much renders your return/exchange privileges useless. AVOID it at all costs.
