I'm really interested in getting a NetWinder too ... however, a "safe"
operating temperature for computers is 40 deg. C or under, so I wouldn't
want to take a chance on changing to the lower fan speed.  After 40 deg.
C, the failure rate generally doubles for every 10 deg. C temperature
rise on chips.  

Cheers,
