Shivering Isles patch coming Monday for Xbox 360

According to a post on Bethesda production director Ashley Cheng's blog, a patch to fix the "formID" bug in the Oblivion expansion Shivering Isles will be available for download on the Xbox 360 Monday, April 30. The patch has been available for PC since April 12, as well as some fan-created solutions prior to that.There's a chance the patch will not make its purported Monday deadline, but the good news still is that there is a patch and it is complete and coming very soon. The critical bug would essentially appear late in the game and cause items to disappear.
Cheng, whose current project is Fallout 3, has also posted a handful of YouTube videos featuring the various introductions from the Fallout series. Maybe they're considering a similar opening for their version? Time will tell.
[Thanks, Megen]

And the patch for the new shaders from the PS3 version? I want that and an optional HDD install or semi-install to decrease load time.
Yes, I've been playing it a long time, but haven't played the main quest yet.

Good; I can finally resume playing the game. I stopped playing as soon as I heard about the bug and filed my character away on a memory unit to wait on the patch.

FINALLY.
I've been waiting to get back to Oblivion.
How many points are there total now? 1250?
Whatever it is, I've got max. Hooray for me!
