A general interest message

Generally I don't forward chain e-mails. Today, however, I received a mail from a student of mine and it seemed to ask people to perform something very simple. I didn't forward the mail.. I'm just placing the message below. (I have a soft corner for birds ..)

Class action lawsuit on sony

Here it is finally: http://ps3.ign.com/articles/108/1086720p1.html
It has been due for quite some time now.

Alas my PS3 bricked right after my last post and i got a new PS3 from sony service after 21 days. It's the slim 120GB which never had the OtherOS feature at all. Sony service is another story..maybe i'll get around to telling it later. The new set looks flimsy like a cheap plastic box...

Only thing that i will recommend is that don't buy a PS3 in India. The unit is not repairable in India. Yes.. in the warranty period of 1 year they will provide you with the latest available model. (I had the rugged 80GB model .. I got the flimsy 120GB model after waiting for 21 days). No extended warranty is sold for PS3 in India. Bet your retailer won't tell you that.

I think this is the last Sony product that i will ever have bought.
