Which model? Just wondering if it was one of the "cool" or "hot" models. I haven't read a lot about failed "cool" ones, but have about the "hot" ones used extensively for gaming.
I would contact Sony ASAP as they are said to be somewhat flexible on these borderline cases. Or at least they used to be last year.
At this stage, if mine failed, I'd pony up for the fix...after I took a look at it myself. Can you still use it for other stuff, like for streaming music etc., with a dead BD drive? If so, then maybe I'd look around, but impossible to match it for BD anywhere close to $150.
Follow Ups:
Mine was used exclusively for showing Blu-Ray and regular DVDs, so no heavy load and no long hours associated with gaming. It ran well and never had any heat issues.
I may just go ahead and send it in, now that I have calmed down a bit about it. I just managed to fix my Panasonic VHS/DVD-recorder combo by opening the DVD drive and cleaning the laser lens. For anyone who has one, and if it says 'Invalid Disc' or 'Cannot Read' or some such, that could be your fix.
With that little "triumph", I am not going to push my luck any further because there is a good chance Sony will refuse to fix the PS3, warranty or not, if I open the box. So, it's off to Sony wth it.
If the new Oppo is everything they say it is, I may just have to think about that.....
