- I dunno...I know a LOT of people who still have those old Sonys. I
- recently ordered a replacement remote for my 10-yr-old 13-inch (infrared),
- and got it in less that a week for less than $20 including shipping. If
- you've got any desire, call their 800 # (800-222-SONY), and ask. I'll bet
- they still have some hanging around.

- Whatever you do, no matter the product, NEVER order a replacement remote
- from the store you bought the product at. Circuit City wanted *$75* to
- replace the same remote I mentioned above.
