It was to sit in my bedroom, to record TV, TV recording playback, lightweight media center and blu-ray player.
I'll just have to put it in the room next to the bedroom and only route the hdmi from there. no big deal and the BT remote should do the trick.

The sound isn't that strong, although its not nighttime yet when the noise floor is a lot lower.
But it's ratling a bit, with lots of unpleasant harmonics that make it very noticeable.
The idea is that for a night recording (via playTV), the ps3 switched on will probably prevent me from sleeping if in the bedroom.

I know that may seem dumb or not that interresting, but since the lightweight/TVrecording/BR media center will probably be 98% of the use I'll have with that PS3, it's of the utmost importance to me.
Not at all, to me anyway. Is this the PS3 slim? Or the fat? Because from what I've heard, acoustically the slim is a bit improvement.
