I now have two 360s (I gave the older one to my son), and the newer unit is dramatically quieter. It would appear they've found a way to significantly reduce the DVD drive noise.
As an aside, the heat produced by the new unit is also a lot less.
I don't think there's any question the PS3s have produced more heat than the 360s, it just seems that Sony has its act together when it comes to properly handling the heat.
