Reasonable on 14 September 2008
It's overheating and may quit entirely., I had same problem with my 60GB in UK. I called Sony and to my surprise they had a new 60GB on my door three days later (it would have been two days but I had to get them to delay another day before I would be around to swap.
I'd suggest that if you are in warranty call Sony before you're out of it. If you're out of warranty call Sony and state you thought only 360's failed like this (sorry 360 owners, its nothing personal). A friend of mine really grumbled using that story when out of warranty and they eventually agreed to swap for zero cost even though he was out of warranty.
Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...
