Mine just did it.  After 8 months of gaming joy.  There is a theory (read the pinned topics).  If you don't have the jack, the hot gun trick may work (search this forum).

I paid the cash (ransom) and am currently awaiting the cardboard casket.  I also plan to buy the extended warranty (which is available again if you pay to fix/replace your system).

This thing is getting way too wide spread.  If TwistedSymphony's theroy is correct (which I believe it is), then expect a real class action lawsuit in the future.  Keep your receipt!  I believe MS will eventually be refunding my $130.  It just might take awhile.  Until then, Madden is coming, so I'm not waiting.

Mmmmm weird M$ took my 360 no questions asked (well apart from 'whats wrong with your 360?') They didnt even  ask for the receipt
