Ive seen it done your not supposed to leave the towel on for long about half an hour or something, but I guess it might make you 360 work for a bit longer but ive seen reports of 360's working after the towel trick and breaking again soon after.

It varies. It may never happen again. It may happen in a few months, a few weeks, a few hours. Ive had to use it a few times since I first got the RLOD a few months ago. As soon as the Halo 3 Beta's over, its going for repairs.
