I wouldn't think they would add free BR-DVD!? The 2 guys who posted are from sydney, and one didnt post till 27h or 28th< Look like it might be a bit longer for Vics! Damn those Sydneyites!!!!

Misterbumpy Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 WHAT: KDL40W3100 WHEN: 30/12/2007 WHERE: Clive Peeters Richmond (VIC) HOW MUCH: $3000 (TV + $429 TV stand + 4 years total extended warranty) MAILED: 7/1/08 STATUS: Online registration completed, PS3 not received Yeh, Its the wireless remote inc. with all isn't it? I read it can remain with a wire or changed to unplugged thus wirelesss! I wouldn't think they would add free BR-DVD!? All Playstation 3 controllers are wireless (Bluetooth), however, they can can be attached to the console via a USB-to-mini USB cable. This allows you to use the controller and charge the internal, non-replaceable, rechargeable batteries at the same time. Not sure if the PS3 comes with the USB cable but I'd be very surprised if it didn't. Don't hold your breath for a free Blu-Ray movie. Sony are not THAT generous, afterall they are giving away something worth $699 already! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Back on the 15th Feb) hey mate. I guess you could try sort it out with your local post office (give them a signed written letter that states your friend will pick up the item. Write their details on the letter too, so they can check). Just a thought, don't know if they would actually let you. Really depends on who runs your local AP. Otherwise, couldn't you just send in your friends address rather than yours (to sony). A couple questions if I mayDid they send you any movies with the PS3 or was it just the PS3 by itself? And what controller did they give you with it? Cheers PS3 40gig comes with the PS3, Sixaxis controller, Analogue cable + USB Cable. Note: The Sixaxis controller does not have rumble!! You need to get the new dual shock controllers (not out in Australia yet). I'm getting one and assassins creed from http://www.play-asia.com/. But its $24 for fedex shipping. Oh and go to whirlpool.net.au to get $5us off the total. Wow, I have not even got the damn console and i've already spent $160!!

DR.ZOIDBERG Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 (edited) I guess it takes so long for Sony to send them out as they would have to check the Receipt with the store of purchase to make sure its legit. ??

ultimate hater Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 I guess it takes so long for Sony to send them out as they would have to check the Receipt with the store of purchase to make sure its legit.?? either that or they have 1 person doing the whole thing!!!! bit like when happy is our on at the pub.. only ever 1 bar person duing this busy period, then when it finishes magically 2 extra people appear!!!

yeehou Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 ChimaRR, did they request u to provide appropriate identity to confirm you age and address? It is stated in terms and conditions Number 11 I'm really worried if I put down my friends address, plus I'm leaving for holiday and I am really worried that they might call me.

shepp Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 Few questions. 2) How much was the 250gig drive? Must have been around $200? 4) What brand/model did you get? Hey hype, I got the western digital 250gb drive, picked it up for $160 (got a friend in the computer industry), not sure of the model, I know it's a 5400 RPM drive, the 7200 drives just make the PS3 run hotter, no other advantage (so im told ? ! ?)

Devoran Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 (edited) Heyas, Bought the KDL40W3100 for $2650 including 5yr warranty. Picked up the TV today, mailed the bits off today. See how it goes. Looks like quite a few people over on Whirlpool have also received their PS3, good to see Sony aren't mucking around with this one Edited January 10, 2008 by Devoran Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
