^ you already listed the difference of the new 40GB. early impressions indicate the 40GB runs a little cooler and less noisy and have lower power consumption.

why don't you try to just set 720p only. disable 1080i and 1080p and test if this will happen again.
there's some cases called HDMI "hand-shaking" where the device need to communicate with the display, causing screens adjustments.

Hi convict. I'm also using HDMI to connect my PS3 to my Dell 2407WFP. For the audio, you need to get yourself a Y-splitter cable. Like this:  Then, connect the composite cable to the back of your PS3, the red and white audio to the Y-splitter, and the other end of the Y-splitter to your speakers. That's it!  Just ask any computer shop for it. Must have one. Only RM10 I think. Good luck!
