yup..this points to what i was saying, HDMI, 120 GIG , AN THE NEW 65 nm processor being the extent of the upgrade for V2..but putting the new upgraded system out so quick would be a problem..their fanbase would be not too happy..

most would feel why did you not do this in the first place.....
an the cost for the upgrade would increase the cost of the xbox360..the thing is microsoft may release the system at $500.00 an if they do this ...that is shure to gather alot of sales...

but would be frownd on by alot of consumers...but MICROSOFT has a ton of money an Like they care anyway..they already stoped production on the first XBOX only after 4 years..so nothing new. this would realy be the only way that MICROSOFT will try to further damage SONY's adoption of the playstation 3. an if it works there is pretty not much SONY could realy do about it ...its a war with MONEY ..which without paying overhead like SONY has too ..MICROSOFT just has more of it..but even this still may not be enough to help Microsoft anyway because the BLU-RAY drive is the one thing that Microsoft does not have "currently" an if Microsoft adopts BLU-RAY ..

they would "realy only use it for MOVIES only" because if they started to use it for game's than there would be major backlash..

which still brings it back to the first point..by not incorperating a BLU-RAY or HD-DVD drive off the bat the xbox360 will prob. just only use DVD 9 , for games..nothing wrong with that ..but it does show short sightedness
