My Xbox 360 has games I'm currently playing stacked on top of it. But other than that I have it clear around all of the vents.

The only reason I'd ever get this is for the blu ray...and there are cheaper/better blu ray players out there now.

Really? Last I checked, while there were some better rated blu-ray players than the PS3, they were all however the same price or more expensive, all without the added bonus of playing games.

If I'm wrong, I'd be happy for you to point them out.

Do all of the Ps3s still include the wireless internet connectivity like the PSP?

Yeah, at least the new one has WiFi out of the box, along with an ethernet port around back.

I was thinking about getting a refurbished 80 gig one for $249, but I'm just going to wait it out til the slim one comes out. According to gamespot it'll be in stores on the 25th.

So not to be outdone... by themselves... Sony announced a new SKU

Not bad price in comparison to the 120 gig Slim.
