Has anyone recieved their free PS3 yet, im talking about the sony bravia with free ps3 deal. They said up to 28days for delivery so im just wondering if anyone has had theirs turn up. My guess is i'll receive mine on the 28th day not that im complaining i already have a ps3 but playing it on the 42inch x series is awesome. Started playing through all the games i have already finished just cause they look so good.

Sent the redemption in on the 2nd of Jan. and have been eagerly awaiting ever since. Love my LCD but cant wait to do some serious gaming when its linked to a ps3.
Checking the mail box everyday (haha) but not really expecting it before late jan/early feb.

Do Sony send you an email confiming they have recieved the redemption letter? A friend bought the samsung that comes with a Free smaller LCD and he recieved a confimation email from samsung.
Anyone know or heard anything?

I got a confirmation email when I registered online, but nothing after I sent it. I sent mine on on around the 23rd Dec

On the DTV forum, people are starting to get their free PS3s, starting last Thu or Fri. Mine can't be too far off.

I hope.

That's kind of ****** of them just not giving it to you when you get the TV... LOL, I remember when the PSP first came out, they offered a free Spiderman UMD which you had to register for like this, only people put in a different email address and registered multiple times and ended up with a whole bunch of copies

I only managed to get two though, before they figured it out.

You should see if that works with PS3's xD

LOL, they were a lot craftier with the PS3. You had to actually send the physical serial number from the TV box in to them. I'd expect they'd have kept a database of them.

Cheers Mobe,
I got the same email when I registered. but started to get worried when I hadnt heard anything else. that makes me feel a bit better.
It would be awseome if you could post on this topic when yours arrives, that way I can just add a week on and I will know roughly when to expect mine. thanks again.

Yea, I bought our BRAVIA X on the 21st. Sent the paperwork during the Christmas week.

They said wait 28 days. So I'm presuming I'm getting my free PS3 in the week starting 21st Jan?

I was just starting to wonder whether I should try and contact sony to check they got my paperwork as I had heard nothing. I sent mine off on 27th December, so hopefully will hear something soon.
I wonder what I should do with a 2nd ps3....

Just wait a little longer for it, Tank. I'm sure you'll get it soon. Same with everyone else.

As for what to do with another PS3...Set it up in another room? lol Or just sell it.

crazynites says:

Tank , its only been 15-16 days so you have at least another 12 days to wait before you should contact SONY, & when they say 28 days, is that 28 working days ? If its 28 working days then you will be waiting more like 6 weeks as theres been alot of public holidays & weekends.

You know what would be great for everyone who is waiting for a ps3 thru this offer?
As soon as somebody receives one, post the news here & the date it was posted off to Sony. Everyone else should then have a good idea of when they will get thiers.
BTW Cherrona, I don't think my better half will allow me another 46" x series to go with my 2nd ps3

Nope, didn't ask for any postage. Sony were quite specific about how the paperwork was to be done.
No mention of postage...I think...I'm sure...

Sent my info away on the 7th of Jan should have arrived by the 9th so I don't expect mine till early or mid Feb. Not that I'm worried its staying the box till MGS4 comes out.

@Vinzor your dad will be waiting a long time, the first gen of OLED displays or "Lazer TV's" are expensive and don't last as long as plasma and lcd displays. The contrast ratios available on OLED's is amazing but it will be at least two years before "Lazer TV's" are a reasonable option.
