PS3 Kiosk Changes due to Overheating

Just as PS3 pre-orders are selling out nationwide at EB Games/GameStop stores, Generation: Gamerz has received information implying that Sony is worried about PlayStation 3 heat issues, contrary to recent reports.
In addition to the 3 crashes witnessed by many at the TGS show, at least one company that manufactures the store kiosks has been asked to implement last minute design changes to the displays: additional cooling is being implemented. Although our source reports that they have been unable to overheat the unit in house, they are to continue with the installation of a cooling fan in the display.

Seems as though Sony is experiencing many of the same problems Microsoft has. Let`s hope Sony provides a longer warranty.

let me be the first to say that this is a kiosk redesign that they need to make it a more reliable enviroment for the ps3 that will be placed inside its form fitting shell. this still doesn't say anything about the ps3 overheating or any of that rumor filled crap. take anything that puts out heat and has a fan to remove the heat, then enclose it in a very small plastic box. if you dont' make the box remove some of the heat, it will overheat anything.

yes that is true, but if sony is worried about it, the rest of us should be too. But there are always glitches with the first of any new system, i hope they don't do worse than the 360's did...
