    Fujistsu says its warranty is global. Has anyone tried to service their US purchased notebooks outside the US? Just wondering.

    I repaired mine in Canada twice already. I purchased the notebook in USA.
    It's a global warranty and it is as advertised.

    Nice to know! Because of this I am going to wait for S or E series revisions and not go for the sony SZ. Just to highlight to everyone if you buy a Sony from a retail outlet you cannot purchase international warranty.

    I bought mine in US and am now trying to serice in UK. I have a 3 yr extended warranty I bought from Newegg.com. While the warranty is valid I can see a big difference in quality of service from US to UK.

    The US service is on top of everything - very quick and efficient. UK guys you could tell that they dont want to help you,when I called they tried to find excuses to tell me XYZ problem is not covoered - but the US Fujistu confirmed that is covered under the warranty. So finally Uk guys agreed to fix it.

    But its now 4 days since I called them (Fujistu-Siemens UK_ and they promised to contact me to pick up the laptop for repair - no answer from them.
