Doh!  I _really_ don't wanna hear things like that now!!!!
Do you have a number for them?  I still have the US one (sentimental
value) so could have one upstairs & one downstairs.....

How long ago was this?  They might have changed their policy by
now...... :?

cheers,


Tony

When I dropped my US model I phoned philips uk to ask if they could
supply spares or repair it.


surprisingly not only did they offer to look at it FOC, they actually
replaced it with a brand new uk model.

Yup.  Mine has been knocked to the ground countless times by SWMBO,
kids, me

after a few beers etc.

And it survived every single one - apart from the last :(

Screen cracked & only replacements were ones which may/may not work
with
my

model & would have cost about 80 quid from the states.


So..... I had to buy a UK model from Richer Sounds for 150 quid - rather


that than chance the 80 quid and end up with a dud.

I _swear_ it's not as sensitive as my original US model :-(

Yeah, except had just claimed accidental damage to my LD player, which
was

subsequently replaced with a decent DVD player to replace my Panny A110.


Thought it might look a bit dodgy with 2 claims so close together :-}
