Xbox got a new faceplate in the Taiwanese market, with the introduction of a "summer package" that includes Xbox Live! A favorite quote is from a marketing person, as usual. "It's vacation season once again, and this means more members of the family will be grabbing the controller to play our high-energy games." Nothing like taking a vacation and getting away from it all in the den. The unit is priced at NT$5,980, which somehow translates into not that much money. Fair warning — the article appears not once, not twice, but three times on the same page. Which beats our record by one.

They should have skipped the facelift and opted for liposuction instead.

With that 'facelift', you're referring to the translucent case? I saw one like that in the shops a few days here in the Netherlands... So Europe already seems to have such an XBox?

It's at least around for a couple of days already, but dunno exactly when it has been introduced. May have been last week, or a month ago.

The crystal edition has been available in Sweden since sometime around February-Mars.
