It's not noisy *unless* you're gaming or don't give it ventilation. The latest 80/160GB versions are based on the quieter old 40GB version which runs much cooler than the units people mostly complain about (different chipset and technology).
Connectivity is fine IF you have HDMI. If you don't you will some day. This is not a flaw, any more than saying a 5.1/7.1 device is "flawed" because you only have 2 speakers... But yes, you do need HDMI to get all the good stuff, so I wouldn't even bother with the PS3 unless that's in your near future.
The lack of built-in IR connectivity was a stupid Sony decision, I'll give you that. Especially when you consider a third-party solution is available for as low as $10...
