I've had my PS3 since they were first released, and never had any problems until about a week ago. Now I'm having the exact same problem as you. I put a disc in, the little scanning icon comes up in the upper-right corner of the screen --sometimes for a really long time, then ... nothing. No disc icon in the PS3 menu. Have you figured out what's going on yet? I don't want to have to go out and buy a new PS3 so soon.

yeah i had to send mine off to get a replacement ps3. it came in like 4 days i think so not too long to wait, and its just bad luck on our part that our ps3's were affected in the first place.
