Large numbers of these machines are suffering; stuck on "update".
It's Sony's fault but there is a clumsy 'workaround' here (from Pewrigh38) http://community.sony.co.uk/t5/Home-Cinema-Project...

The AV forums are going mad about this. I've now got mine out of update mode and it seems to be working OK. Quite a few people have assumed their machine has conked out and have been out this weekend and bought another one.

This has made the Tech pages of the BBC News this morning.

Looks like another duff update from Sony.

Have a poke about and it shouldn't be to difficult to find some more details.

Seems to be fixed now. Go through all the steps of the workaround but enter country as UK.
Worked for me.
