Marry this devcie with Palm's new WebOS and I will buy three!

I have a spare HDMI port massively screaming for the elite 360 console effect! The design is sweet icing on the cake!

I believe the Blu-Ray player will be an add-on that looks just like the HD-DVD add-on; except in a diff color scheme.

MS can use existing materials to produce the hardware and claim support for the format. Win-win!

I caught an HD_DVD drive for $50...I think it will be my only stop in this HD disc media forest. Games are not benefitting from using these discs IMO

Looks/Sounds like a bad case of 360 envy...Poor guy...If you're reading, sick modder, there's only one cure!

Wireless Headset
Play and Charge Kit
$150 cold, hard, cash
Some "Chef-Style" Lovin'!

Great posts #24 and #28!

Here's the skinny...Yes, this can be done by MS. However, doing so is not worth the investment. As post #28 pointed out the numerous plug-ins, DL content, input devices, etc are not going to bode well on the 360 platform. Also, why compete in a space another arm of the company dominates in?

Post #24 has the right idea. I see MS leaning toward a "Web Blade" where X360 users can pick and choose live content. It will probably be tied into xbox.com where you can login there on your PC, pick the options/sites/RSS you want displayed, attach these to your gamertag, and are available when you turn on the 360. This way, you (and MS) have more control of the web environment and it is safe data. Can u imagine the backlash MS will get if the X360 starts giving gamers the blue screen of death?
I wouldn't use a X360 web browser. It would only frustrate me when I need to visit my company's remote login. Making me run to my CPU anyway.

@ Chris...And I think we can forget about the 802.11 b/g on our network. Which truly sux...If Sprint manages to get that in, it will be a miraculous first! And I never thought about the touchscreen functionality. That would be terrible to lose. I can live with current screens!

@ Chris...I'm a Sprint guy too and I believe this device will see the light of day on our network! I want an all black version with Power Vision (or newest version of high speed data access from Sprint), the shiny Motorola screens, and no DAMN external antenna! I will upgrade from my treo 700p for this handset if it shows up in this form.

I purchased Gears at a price lower than $44.99 originally through that craptastic BBuy RewardZone program. I guess it pays off around this time of year. I also was able to get NBA 2K7 for free!!

I totally agree with the reviews hitting the 'net! Gears of War is the sh*t!! If you have an XBOX 360 and haven't played/bought this game, you are doing yourself an injustice! If you do not have an xbox360, this game alone will encourage you to buy one! I have had the game for a week and played it EVERY-FREAKIN-DAY!!! Thanks Epic and MS for giving us gamers WHAT WE WANT!!
