PS3 keeps shutting off on its own.

I'm screwed...I will be in the middle of a game and my PS3 just shuts down on its own. The red light blinks and I lose my remote connection and have to turn the PS3 back on by the power button.

Its a good thing I have 2 PS3's.

The playstation sits out on top of a entertainment center....that thing has all the air it needs. Dust shouldn't be the issue because I usually clean it out because it sits out in the open and you guys know how it attracts dust. THis is my original 60g Playstation that died on me about a year and a half / 2 years ago and I needed to sent it to Sony to get it fixed. That was in the middle of the COD4 addiction and I couldnt wait 6 weeks for it to come back so thats why I bought the other PS3 which is an 80g.

I'll give it a shot and let you know how it works out.
