The problem isn't heat, but taking the markets cheapest BD player and fusing it to a potentially expensive HDTV. Marrying the industries most unreliable product (Optical drives) to one of the most reliable products is dumber that dumb. Isn't anyone one on this board old enough to remember all of the VHS/TV or DVD/TV combos parents gave their college freshman children. The player almost never worked by the end of the first school year. Imagine if you had to send your HDTV out for repair everytime your DVD player malfuctioned or broke.

It would be really handy if the TV had an HDMI input just in case that happens.
