Okay here is the funny story.

They sold me a 2Y Extended Service Plan.  That plan starts the day of
purchase!  I was not informed of this.  When I got the email that stated
11/28/2009 -> 11/28/2011 I was furious.  

I've been on the phone for 30 minutes and I have to call back in 24
hours to cancel the transaction.

Why would I pay $99 for a 2Y warranty with 1 year already gone?  Does
this make any sense?
