awesome, I still have my launch PS3. I'll get it repaired if it dies though.


Fun story about that: Turns out Sony charges $150 to even look at a PS3 that's out of warranty, and any repair parts that must be ordered get added to that price. It would have cost me $200 to get it fixed, whereas Gamestop gave me $200 for it, and then I bought a Slim for a total cost to me of only $100.

Really?

I've received two refurbished units between the two PS3s I've sent in for repair: my original 60GB SKU and a 40GB SKU that belonged to my brother. Both were about a $160 charge.
