KDL-50W809C - Issues and features not working

[J.White]

Recently purchased this and I'm a bit shocked.

1. HDD recording does not work. This is one of the main reasons I purchased the TV.

2. Has issues picking up USB key (which works in my other TV).

3. Need to reboot every other day.

4. When powered off I hear almost a power discharge sound. Almost like the sound when you first turn on your PC. As this happens multiple times I have started unplugging it from the wall in case of damage.

5. Apps freezing all the time.

6. Only picks up a hand full of channels compared to my other TV.

What can be done? How can Sony release a TV which does do what it says on the tin!

Updates are promised, to fix some issues and missing features...

Oh cr@p!

How can they sell TV's where the main features do not work. The sale of goods act must cover this? Time to have a look!!
