Does the 360 Arcade unit play HD DVDs and is it wireless for the net? Thanks!

A. You need an HD DVD add-on and either the memory card or hard drive. Preferably the hard drive since it needs to install software for playback. You could use the 256mb card that comes with the Arcade but you will need to have it in everytime you want to watch an HD DVD.

B. All XBox 360s require a Wireless Network Adapter to connect wirelessly to the internet. The older 802.11b/g adapter dropped in price but the newer 820.11b/g/n can be had for about $5-$10 more. If you are technically savvy then you can get a wireless router with a bridging mode and use that.
