Title: Board broken after 9 mos
Review: We chose the Sony on the basis of a strong rating in Consumer Reports and their reputation as a solid brand. Picture and features are nice, but I'm disappointed to report that after only 9 months the TV's board has failed and the warranty for labor is only 90 days! Fortunately, the parts warranty is 12 months so the board is covered but we will still be paying about $170 in labor to get the TV fixed.Given the weight of this unit (no fun to get to an upstairs game room!) and the price of plasma screens continuing to fall, I would not opt for this model but rather a plasma TV that you now don't have to pay that much more for and won't break your back moving around. And, based on our experience, I would not pay extra $$ for the Sony brand.
Is the review positive or negative?
