you need $149 to extend it for 1yr as long as your current warranty hasn't expired hence the term "extend"

i can't find the website for or number but i'm sure you can do that :)

Usually the cost depends on the machine Type.

This page contains the steps you should look into.

If you check this thread (see the post of Wed Jul 04), you will find varoius information about upgrading or extending your warranty.

I guess you can't extend an expired one. Right? I'd love to do that for my thinkpad

One can, it's called Post Warranty service and merely depends on the Machine "Model" and "Type". Please follow this thread.
