Today my PlayStation 3 finally arrived after being sent to the Sony PlayStation Clinic. Before my sick baby was throwing-up green bubbles on the screen before just refusing to do anything. Unfortunately the repair process cleaned-out all my "important" data, but that was a small price to pay for free repairs.
The paperwork that was included with my returned system indicate that the system's main board was damaged. While I won't admit this was my fault, I will say that I will never attempt to reset a frozen PS3 via the hard power-off switch. The regular power on/off switch is a touch-sensor, not a regular button or switch. I just assumed that if the system was frozen a hard or soft reset would be the same. Perhaps they are, and the system's freezing was a sign the main board was going bad.
It really is good I got it back this week. Tomorrow is Japan's Thanksgivings Day, a national holiday. Since Sanami is off work, and we have our Japanese DVD player back (the PS3), we will be renting Lemmy's Great Restaurant. What, you've never heard of it? Perhaps you are more familiar with the US title, Disney's Ratatouille.
PS3, back from service.
