Either send it to Sony or buy a new one.  Everthing else will not last for very long.  I had mine fixed by Sony last September, and it has run perfectly since.  However, if I didn't have a launch 60 gig with BC, card slots and 4 usb port, I would've just bought a slim.

My friend has used the re-flow method to fix his, and it worked for about 2 weeks.  It fixed it again, using the same method, and it lasted about 1 week.  He then went and bought a slim.

What ever you decide, good luck
