Yesterday I went over to a Development Studio and got to see actual PS3 TEST Kits in action (Until now, all I've seen are the 3 foot bulky dev stations that look like Beta Max videotape players). It was so shiny and sleek (just like Darth Vader's Helmet). Low and behold the power supply was internal with minimal heat to the unit and no fan noises! (I'm not joking, the thing was freaking mute). Ah, I haven't wanted to dry hump an inanimate object for several years (don't ask, I'm not telling), but that PS3 Test unit was damn sexy.

Nice news to hear seeing as noise and heat issues are getting harder to handle, especially with a power supply inside.

Small thing but £400 does buy some quality.

ya they are using some new special method to manage the heat so they dont need so many fans, its supposed to be as quiet as a slim line ps2.
