The Sony warranty is a 1yr international warranty. The 90 day period is: all items are repaired at no charge regardless if the owner is liable for the defect or Sony.
The 1yr period is: all items are repaired at no charge if it is a Sony fault
and repair will be charged if it is the owners liability that the item is defect.
This is not something speaking against that company but plain and simple normal warranty over here. We tend to hold the one liable who is responsible, not as is the US custom let the whole of all buyers pay for the repairs or send out new items via the price of the items. If you want a two year warranty under EU law you have to buy the item in an EU country.
As a Sony PRS 650 costs 229€ which is 312$US and a PRS 350 costs us 179€ = 244USD I think it is only fair, that you don't have the same warranty options as I do, when I buy my stuff over here. As an EUresident gets it a whole lot cheaper when buying it in the US, why should they get the benefits they have not paid for?
