Talked to Samsung, they were very nice very easy to get through to their
tech support. Connected me with 3-way call to local repair store. Looks
like $300-400 for a new screen and $200-300 labor for on site screen
replacement; that was at one place. I know a guy (The TV Doctor) who might
do cheaper. I am also thinking as some have suggested, that perhaps paying
just labor to remove screen and clean inside might solve the problem,
unless of course the ammonia cleaner I was stupid enough to use damaged
permenently the screen, etc

Crying, but at least $600 is far better than $2000-3000 for a new TV.
