    I am thinking of getting a 1420 and should get a 200 Gift Card with it. Is it possible to buy another year of warrenty later with it? I would like to have at least 2 years warranty but I don't want in home if there is a mail in option I rather use that since it will be cheaper. I remember my old Toshiba sent me an offer to add another warranty when mine was about to expire. If not I guess I will have to add it now but there is really nothing I would want to use that GC with (that I know of).

    Thanks for your help.

    You can purchase an extended warranty up to 30 days before your initial warranty expires. You can buy it online, and they'll send you a packet.

    Cost wise, is it cheaper or more expensive to purchase the extended warranty later on?
