MS execs here confirmed that the Xbox 360 Slim exists and you can expect an official announcement on the console in December. When the redesign will be officially available (in 2009) to consumers is uncertain but this certainly looks to be a worthy purchase to start the New Year.

Take this with a pinch of salt though, apparently they aren't the most trustworthy sources.
 
I can't see how they can make the 360 slimmer. They've still got to retain the correct housing to attach the external HDDs.
 
No way are they going to announce a console redesign to be released after Christmas, before Christmas. That'd be suicide.

One day we may get a slim model, but not any time soon.

You could quite easily design a port on the underside of the unit to be compatible with the existing unit. Of all the engineering challenges they'll have face this is unlikely to bring the project to a halt ;)

I'm sure that if they move to a 45nm CPU & GPU then they wouldn't need the same cooling as the 360 currently uses.

I personally feel that this is definately a route that MS will take as it's been so succesful for Sony in the past.
