How much quieter is this? PS3 level?
From the sole review I've read on this from Engadget. It's definitely quieter than the older models, but still very much audible when playing straight from the disc or watching a DVD.

For me, it's still louder then my launch PS3 but not by much. The new design really does a great job keeping it quiet.
The DVD drive is still pretty loud in my opinion. Thanks to the big hard drive you can install multiple games to it and not even worry about the DVD drive noise.

It is definitely quieter than my old Xbox 360 (original) which red ringed last Thanksgiving.
I think it is as quiet (or a bit louder than) as my PS 3 Slim.
The fan on the side does help keep the console cool.
