I'm not familiar with the Terms of Service of the Carepacks....and those *might* make a significant diff in how I'd view them. But I was one of those who contributed my experiences with the CompUSA TAP in the thread you link, and have been glad I have purchased that.
I'm one of those who had never...ever...purchased an extended warranty of any kind on any device in the past. Never on tv's, home stereo equipt, desktop pc's..., not even on my notebook pc. But with the exception of the notebook, none of those devices travel any further than from the place of purchase to my crib. Once set up, they never move. The notebook is somewhat of an exception, but even it doesn't do all that much traveling.
A PPC OTOH, goes with me almost everywhere. Goes to work, gets used in the car for GPS purposes occasionally, goes to the laundromat with me so I can read AvantGo...heck, it even goes with me in the field occasionally when I go on photo safaris to record GPS coordinates in case I want to come back to that same spot at a later date.
IOW, the PPC gets a **L-O-T** more exposure to potential damaging situations, so I felt the TAP worth it in this instance.
