Default 40GB PS3 to clean itself
Hey I saw on some website that the 40GB PS3 has a self cleaning feature, i was just wondering if this is safe and has Sony PS3 ever mentioned this feature or is it just a bug?

Seams to only work with the 40GB version. It's a good feature though..

Why would it not be safe? I'm not sure I see any risk in holding down the eject button while powering your system.
