 Just say NO--- money in the toilet for this December 11, 2008

Normally I write much more nuanced or balanced reviews, but I can honestly say this is an extreme waste of money. Aside from the idea of paying roughly 5 times what the going rate is for a ps3 cooling device, this device is just poorly made. Its slick and shiny external case may give the impression that what is inside has substance, but it has the most cheaply made fans possible. The result is NOISE from the unit itself under BEST conditions and an EXTREME grinding noise from the cavatating fanblades under everything BUT the best conditions will have you chucking this annoying piece of garbage where it belongs. Do yourself a favor--spend less and simply by a passive usb cooler (any slight alleged advantage with large, aggressively driven fans will not be worth your sanity at trying to hear audio above the racket of this thing)
 It looks great, but EXTREMELY LOUD December 1, 2008
The level of noise is unbearable!!
However, I liked the overall design. They bring the power button on/off to the front, and provide some knob to control fan speed. It blends almost seamless with the PS3.
I am shopping for a new solution. The design is great, but I just can't stand watching blu-ray or playing games at that level of noise.
Completely unnecessary, and potentially harmful November 28, 2008

Ever since Microsoft approved the shoddily-made Xbox 360, which is infamously prone to overheating, it opened the door wide open for third party peripheral makers to release all manner of "system cooling" peripherals that do absolutely nothing at all. Do not be fooled, these devices will not make your system any less prone to failureand the only console that has an overheating problem is the Xbox 360.
The PS3 and Wii are perfectly designed for expelling heat already, so the only thing that these "external cooling units" do is wear out the system's internal fans faster, and the same goes for the Xbox 360 (and there is no proof anywhere that these external cooling units make the Xbox 360 less prone to overheating/RRODing). Save your money and do not buy these ridiculous, unnecessary devices. They are nothing but a lame attempt by peripheral companies to cash in on consumer paranoia.
 Cool,cool. November 16, 2008

This fan is the best on the market. It fits perfectly on the new 80gb model and is not as loud as some reviews might lead you to believe. It keeps the PS3 much cooler.
