Sony issued the following statement on 19 May, saying that they will
issue a fix in "7-10 days".

Nine days ago ...


Indeed, but I did Sony a slight disservice. They didn't state that they
would issue a fix, but rather they stated that they were testing a fix
and would have more information in the next 7 to 10 days.

Point noted. I wonder what they mean by:

This fix will improve the transition from 1080i to 1080p and back, to
ensure the audio, picture and data information are not interrupted.

'Improve the transition' stops short of promising a full solution.
However, they do go on to use the word 'ensure'. We'll know by
tomorrow though :-)

Have they (Sony) not been working flat out to secure all the security
breaches and temporary removal of various "essential to some"
online gaming services?

Even if the relevant technical team is based in Japan? Giving this
priority for power over their little local difficulties?? I know
Japanese service is legendary but I really don't think failure to cure
audio drop-out on some sets on one BBC Freeview service calls for
seppuku :)

Look if they do not get this problem fixed pronto, it is
time to call on the services of Godzilla (tm).

No it won't be, there's going to need to be a software update. Probably
firstly as a patch downloadable from Sony's website that you can apply via a
USB stick, then hopefully an OTA broadcast on the BBC mux. Either way, I've
seen nothing yet on Sony's or the DTG website.

I've only been a Bravia owner for 3 weeks so I've not yet experience it
but I *think* Sony also push updates to at least some ranges if the TV
is left connected to the 'net.
