I currently have a new Macbook Pro 15" i7 unibody. The only problem is that when i run anything that requires more then 30% of the CPU power it gets insanely hot (+70 C).

I was wondering if anyone knew of any cooling products that I could use to cool it.

Pray that Coolbook gets support for i7 CPU's.

I don't think 70C is too bad though. My previous MBP (2009 model 13.3" 2.53GHz) reached 105C after torture testing the CPU. Apple said it was OK...
