Thats nice, but its not really "neww hardare", just a "different configuration". But its great, because the PS3 needs to be cooler and cheaper for Sony.

I see what you guys mean, a few adjustments (nicer and cooler) but its still a 'normal' ps3. This news doesnt encourage me to get a new PS3. I guess if my PS3 breaks again (I had a drive failure) then it would be nice to have these tweaks. Things like this make getting a repair less worthwhile too.

Awww. What am I going to do with my PS3 Slim. Oh well. *Chucks PS3 out of window* But seriously, I don't see any significant changes here and I doubt it will really be preventing any hardware failures unless they're using parts of better quality instead of a change in size.
