"Ape stuck inside."
Those of you who have been following thread http://dvinfo.net/conf/showthread.php?t=102799 -- my travails in getting my V1 repaired for the last 35 days -- will be glad to know it's back and working and was repaired under warranty.
In looking at the paperwork returned with the cam, I noted the first sentence, which described the problem with the camera: "Ape stuck inside." NOW I understand why it took so danged long to fix it. --Ralph

I'm guessing it wasn't the ape so much as the banana.

Sony should get its act together before they monkey around with repairs.

Sounds like the repair man had a monkey on his back.

That's what happens when you send your repair to a Banana Republic.

If I had to wait 35 days for a repair I would be climbing the Empire State Building and shouting at the world.

I think it's time to stop beating your chest about this issue. I love my V1 so much I feel like swinging in the trees.
