I contacted Sony on the problem...turns out it's a common issue. So if you got it fixed before Nov. 2007, submit them a receipt for the damages and they'll reimburse you, or if you contact them now, they'll have an authorized Sony Repair tech fix it for free, but it has to be done before Dec. 2008.
