Sony TV LCD "roadmap" screen effect

Oct 14, 2005 3:31PM PDT

New to the forum--have a question regarding Sony LCD's big screen TV's. Have been hearing of an unusual defect on the Sony LCD big screens that occurs after 18 to 24 months of use. A "roadmap" like image is showing up in the lower corner of the screen and no one seems to know what the problem is or how to correct it. Sony is allegedly not responding and there is talk of a class action suit. Don't know if legal action is a rumor. Has anyone had such a problem. Ecoustics.com has a forum discussing this problem but no one has any answers. I was about to purchase the new Sony KDFE-60A20 but am reluctant to make such an expensive purchase. Need some advise. Thanks
