Question 1. I just bought a PS3 Slim from a friend and there's nothing wrong with it that I know of, but I noticed that the little bugger runs really hot. Like it was on for maybe 20 minuets, and I decided to plug in my other Fat Playstation 3. So I took out the HDMI cable and it was so hot that it startled me and I litterely dropped the cable. Checking the back of the Slim I noticed that the whole thing was hot to the touch. Is that normal with the Slim Models? Question 2. Is it possible to transfer data between my two PS3's using Ethernet cables? I cant go online and retreve my trophies untill this weekend at least, but like can I just Transfer everything between the two of them by plugging the ethernet cable into their ports? Sorry for posting two questions in one forum, But I figured I would kill two birds with one stone and keep the forums less crowded for others's and not bump 2 fourms off of the first page.

To answer your other question: Yes, you can connect the 2 PS3s directly and transfer your stuff. It's a new feature that was recently added in a firmware update. Go to Settings > Back Up and Storage (or something like that) > Data Transfer. It'll explain how to get the games saves and music and everything to transfer from one to the other.
