Looks like my PS3 is broken

Any advice? Just call up Sony? Is there any kind of warranty or anything? How much do they cost to fix?
I remember someone had to send theirs in and it took forever.
It froze during a game the other day, worked for a couple of days, and froze again today during a game. I couldn't turn it off other than the main power button, and now it won't read any of my games.
Help?

did you get a warranty when you bought it? I know I got a 3 year warranty from Best Buy and it has only been 2 that I have had it....so they told me if anything happens I just take it back to them and they will replace it for me....now the big issue is everything you have on it "might be lost"...unless they can do something to transfer that info on yours to your new one?....GL with that....

i bought a warranty and got to use it actually sent mine in dec. 22 or so and it is on its way back and should be here by 1/8/09
my harddrive became corrupted and they fixed it hopefully
hope you have warranty but if not sony will charge 150 to get it repaired and i think that taked a while.

It really took that long Kdog? From what I remember from talks on here and the info sony provided it seemed to be faster than that. Mine died and I filled out the online info for the return on the 26th and still have yet to receive the box to ship it back. I'm getting kind of antsy but I guess I shouldn't be after seeing how long it took for yours.

mine was prolonged simply because of the holidays and it depends on where you live also
I live in TExas and my shipments were via ups ground to Pennsylvania. across christmas and new years and 2 weekends.

My boy got a Ps3 and bought it from EB games with the warranty. He took it back and they gave him a new one regardless the problem. he just paid another $50 for another warranty.
