Jeez, you're not having much luck are you....
When you get a replacement do you get a new warranty on it ?

i'm still on my first but only had it a few months now, starting to think I should of taken out the extended warranty, but @ £60 for 2 years thought it was a little steap.. I can't get it now either because you have to send the money of 10 days after purchase so to late now

I think the heat thing is a bit of a random issue - I have my 360 sitting on top of my Sky+ box, which in turn is sitting on top of a plasma tuner, and next to another stack with a DVD player, an enourmous Amp, with an original Xbox on top - and never had a problem.
Obviously it's good to keep things cool - especially in things like capacitors (they will roughly double thier life for every 10 degree C drop in temp, up to point.) But in everyday use - you shouldn't see a problem.
