New Playstation 3

I bought a brand new slim/ultra Playstation 500Gb console 5 days short of 2 months ago.
Today it's dead. Not working, cactus.
I looked online at the Playstation site and found no solution or explanaition. Best on offer was 'contact support' which I did, still waiting for a response.
What is disturbing is that I also looked elsewhere online and so far have not found a single positive experiance with the new PS3.
It appears to be so bad that judging by the anecdotal evidence of other PS3 super/ultra slim owners, I should consider myself lucky that I at least had almost 2 months worth of use before it crapped out.
Obviously there will be teething problems with new equipment, but the unbelievably bad performance of the PS3 ultra slim, makes me wonder if Sony is trying to lose customers?
