Mine seems to work mostly fine and I got it back in 2008 or os? But the one problem I'm having with it now is that the disc tray refuses to open a few times whenever I turn it on. It seems to keep doing it more and more. Lately I've had to press the button on it six times to get it to open. The odd thing is that it doesn't have that problem anymore until I turn it off and then back on again. Wtf is going on??? It's not getting caught on anything and it's all clean in there, no dust, never put scratched discs in or anything. Could it be that I unplug it whenever I have it off??

Well until we're rid of the trend of cheap electronics made overseas, built with components that shave off every single possible penny, for Americans who would rather throw something away and buy a new one than try to get it fixed...

I know you're not in the US, but I don't know too much about consumerism elsewhere ;)

At least not until it comes out for PC.

It would be nice if it was just that, but it won't even boot up the dash board anymore. It's pretty much on it's way out the door.
