Agreed with the above poster. Completely useless, my hand rests on the shifter, and I have NEVER had a need to look down to see what gear I am in in my Civic Si.. If I can't tell what gear I am in while driving a stick, I probably should be driving a stick to begin with.

Sorry, but "brute forcing" the 360 is not going to be possible. Heck, the first Xbox has never had its key cracked by brute force. Even with all the CPU power in the world right now it would take 100's if not 1000 's of years to brute force a 4096 encryption key. But as far as modding (circumventing the security) I am sure that will be accomplished within 6 months. Heck, just look at a pic of the 360 motherboard. There are 3 different "LPC" style solder points on the motherboard (for testing/troubleshooting I assume). So if MS has incorporated a way to get into the box via those points, its just a matter of time before someone finds an exploit (and come on ppl, this is MS we are talking about! Not exactly known for their security are they?) Breaking the Hypervisor itself may not be possible, but somehow tricking it to think the software you want to run is legit (think font expoit on the xbox) may be the answer.
