Time to replace the Sony-no-baloney? It can be confusing as heck and sometimes seems like six of one, half dozen of another. Whatever you get I think if it were me, I'd go with Costco. Their concierge service warranty is very good and they also offer extended warranties through Square Trade that offers excellent service. Unfortunately it is a good idea to buck up on the warranty on these big panels. I've heard to many stories of stuff going wrong and/or lemons.

I don't think you have a Costco near you but it might be worth the drive.
