I rescues a 22" flat monitor from our local e-cycle a couple of months ago. The picture would only stay lit for 5 seconds...I called the manufacturer and sure enough, it was still under warranty!

I waited and waited and tracked status...finally, I phoned them yesterday.

They couldn't fix it, but the nice clerk called their US warehouse and a NEW replacement is being rush-shipped to me. Full warranty til 2012.

I'm with you, Kim - they're great!
