I had this same problem. Last night May 4th 2010 I opened it up and replaced the thermal paste. I used Arctic Sliver 5 it was $9.99 at radio shack.today May 5th I've been playing different games trying to get it to freeze. Mine would always freeze when I exited a game. It's been on 6 hours now and hasn't froze once. Only time will tell.

@Dewnlafied I did the same about a week ago, I even used the same paste; worked fine for an hour then it broke but do to my own stupidity, I forgot to reconnect the fan to board so I guess it's burnt itself out now xD
But yeah the thermal paste did infact help it, it if wasn't for my stupidity it'd still be working now, 'least i got a another PS3 anyhow.

I had the same problem - It is the RSX GPU
What you have to do is open up the console and heat the chip so it reflows the soldier grid balls using a Heat Gun at 300 Degrees Celsius (300 I think - cant remember)
But with mine, I accidentally set it to 600 degrees Celsius and the RAM chips kinda melted xD
So I also bought a new one from eBay with a faulty br-drive and I will swap then over then re-sell it

@Haunted360 Yea I had a feeling that i'd have to heat the chips, however I don't have a heat gun but I've heard of people heating it up in an oven xD might try that, makes no difference to me now lol.
