I find it a bit ironic that sales are slumping, as I have purchased 4 HDTVs for my home since last June and am already looking at replacing the POS Sanyo I purchased for my kitchen.

Huh? Are you actually imply that just because you bought 5 HDTV's that sales should not be slumping? Do you really think 5 TV's make any noticable change to overall worldwide sales?

POS and Sanyo? Filed under redundant.

I bought a Sanyo product in 1981 and had such trouble with trying to get it fixed that I swore I'd never buy from them again. Not that I hold a grudge or anything.

I bought a Sanyo product in 1981 and after trying to get it fixed twice I swore I'd never buy another one of their products again and AFAIK I haven't. Not that I hold a grudge or anything.

I have a Soyo "manufactured GoVideo 32" and, if the quality of this older unit is any indication, I would not be surprised at Soyo having issues.

I was in the process of RMA'ing a Soyo monitor when they filed for bankruptcy. It happened just before FedEx delivered the monitor to them, so it's still in limbo somewhere. Now I don't know how to proceed. I'd like to have my monitor get fixed, but I'm not sure how that will happen at this point. Does anyone know how I should proceed? How do repairs/warranties/etc usually get handled when this happens?

Thanks!
