Did you get the ext. war.? With DLP's its always good to get the ext war as it covers the bulb which can/will go bad. One bulb change just about covers the cost. I've gone through 3 bulbs in just under 4 years, its a Toshiba but the bulbs are made by Philips...just got something in the mail last week where theres a class action suit against Philips or some shit.

I have a Sony DLP & got the ext. from Best Buy - They came out 1st time & replaced it (bulb) - next time I called in & they sent me one - Easy to change.

My warranty is about to run out - so I figured to get a bulb be4 it does.

Call up BB 800 line & dude tells me - Oh ur only allowed 1 bulb in the warranty

I'm like WTF I was never told that - F'in BS - Read ur contract before U buy.

FWIW - bulbs R $180 for my TV, but sure I can get cheaper online - I'm sure bulb will crap out soon - TV is on about 12 hrs a day (youngins)

Thats weird that they just "sent you one." Whats to stop anyone from calling up, getting one, then selling it. With mine, someone comes each time, replaces it, and takes the old. Quick 2min job. Bulbs for this one are about $250-300, so I made damn sure the ext. war. covered the bulb always

that is crazy that there are bulb issues with these units....You would think that they have it figured out by now.

Just a guess but in my case I think it has to do with air flow or lack there of. These bulbs get Africa hot, good constant air flow should help them stay a bit cooler, ultimately lasting longer. DLP's are great though, pretty sick picture.
