				Where to get my PS3 Fixed?
			 
 
			
			I'm looking for a good shop to fix my 80gb backwards compatible PS3. It has the Yellow Light Of Death. I really don't want to sell it but if i cant find anyone i might just have too. If you know anyone or know a good shop let me know. 
 
 Thanks
 -Wes

			call sony. my blue ray drive crapped out on my 80 gig. i thought about the new slim but its limited backwards compatible and it only has 2 usb ports (that means no more rock band). dont forget the lack of media card reader.  I got mine fixed for 150. yeah its pricey but its still cheaper than the slim.

			My blu ray player went on my 60gb PS3 also but I bought a new one ($55 shipped) and installed it myself.  Let me do some reading on the yellow light issue, if it's not bad I may be able to do it for you for a small fee.
