I have a Sony Trinitron KV-40XBR700 and just this past weekend it started to shut off and on by itself as well. Not only that but the picture is blue and red, like there is no green. I have contacted Sony and their response was to contact a service dealer. The TV was manufactured in Dec. 2001 and I am guessing my grandfather purchased it in 2002 sometime so it is 5 years old at the most...I know he paid over $3000 for it and you are going to tell me it doesn't last longer than that. I have other TVs in my house older then that.
