Sony say 12,500 PS3's have broken, about 0.5%. Even if Sony are lowballing that figure, I can't see it being more than 2%. Since that is the average failure rate of an electrical good, why does that warrant a Watchdog investigation?

Because those 12,500 consumers paid a lot of money for a device that costs a lot of money after 12-months to repair, then they only get a lousy 3-month warranty tacked on.  Pathetic excuse for a warranty program.  If my 360 dies of RROD during the first 3 years, MS will fix it for free, no matter how many times it might break (my 360 has failed once in 3 years).
