Canon EOS Rebel xs 1000d problem

My camera shutter mirror is not functioning, it just beeps but never takes pic. Has anyone ever experiences this?

Canon wants $200 dollars to look at it. I only used for 1.5 years.

Never dropped or treated roughly.

When you press the shutter button and it doesn't take the pic, does the rear LCD display an error message?

At the risk of stating the obvious, is there a memory card loaded?  There's a setting in menu 1 for "Shoot w/o card".  If set to OFF, the shutter won't release if there's no memory card, and "Card" will flash in the viewfinder. (p. 108 of the instruction manual).
