Wont be upgradeing my console but im getting the new Hard Drive......when they get to europe that is [:' (]

It' s not a limited run, it' s a permanent edition to the product line.

The black ones with 90nm are limited (Elite), after which they will switch to making them white with 65nm and I guarantee a new price. People who buy the " ELITE" will pay a premium on the console in order subsidize the cost of the fabrication change from 90nm to 65nm. It' s a pretty clever move by MS. If you don' t mind a white one just wait, in a few months they' ll have the 65mn version of the Elite at a better price.

They will keep the Black. Guaranteed. The demand is there and it also gives them another thing over Sony.

Well regardless of the colour the 65nm versions will come out and cost about 400$ USD after the 90nm units are sold. Replacing the Premium which will replace to Core. I hope they discontinue the Core. That' s my prediction anyways.

Well it is now official

Wonder if they will do a tradeup offer, otherwise 10 million gamers are going to be mighty pissed off. Mind you it still comes in at a lower price than the Triple and includes an HDMI cable.

I hope there won' t be a backward compatibility issue, between the premium and the Elite

I got to say it, I think the white looks way better. The black makes it look fugly.

I agree, black works better with sharp edges like with the PS3 or Wii, with the curves of the 360, white is the only suitable colour.

BTW That Tina is quite hot looking.

It' s not that the 360 couldn' t look good in black, its that the black they used is crap. Its dull, and just looks like shitty black plastic. The chrome just makes it look that much worse. If it was a shiny finish like the ps3, the chrome suits it because both are reflective and shiny. I really wanted a black one, but now that I see high res close ups, I don' t know. It just looks real cheap to me, instead of good looking. The plastic looks like the same texture as a SNES.

It' s not a dull black, it' s a dark smoke grey.

I told myself that it' d suck & have no purpose... but why the F*** do I want one?!?!
Dunno, maybe I' ll consider eBaying mine. A modded box has to go for a bit more right?

I guess Sony should be flattered about the colour copying from White to Black.

Seems like Microsoft has just made it harder stay with the top end versions of the system, especially if they plan on revamping it every so often...
Doesn' t make it worth the money if they' re gonna keep Flip-Flopping over what they support/include in/out of the console...
I' d think about getting one some day if they could knuckle down and stick with a plan
and stop bitching.

I want the HDMI and I haven' t bought an Xbox, so I' m happy. However, if I had already bought one, I would be angry. When I buy a console that is the " top of the line" I don' t want it to be mid-range in a year. The price is also a bit high considering how little was added. Hopefully it goes down with the switch to the 65nm chips as many have speculated.

I really really wish it was a nicer black(or grey eddie). I was thinking it would be more of a satin matte finish, not just colored plastic. I know they wouldn' t wanna do shiny because thats what the ps3 is(I wouldn' t care, I love it on all my electronics) but a nice satin black finish would work too, and look much better. With the last generation this look would fit in, but with the Wii and PS3 around, it just comes off cheap IMO. Heck, the white 360' s have a nicer finish.

Im sure MS is sitting there plotting their next color to steal right?

360 dev-kits are the same kind of matte black and they existed prior to Sony' s choice to only supply black PS3' s.

Sega consoles are black, all other black consoles are just boys trying on a man' s shoes.

Got that right!

That' s debatable when it comes to the box itself, but did you see all the freaking accessories it came with?!

-An admittedly overpriced mega HDD
-Component/Composite/(What appeared to be)VGA triple cable (I' m in love)
-HDMI cable (75 bucks USED at Best Buy, I might add)
-Power supply (duh)
-An Analog RCA/TOS-link thingie that separates audio from HDMI
-Cheap@$$ Headset & etherweb like the premium.

All consoles are overpriced & this is no exception, but buying all that crap retail? That' d be stupid expensive.
