Something going on at Microsoft HQ?

I didn't think it was worthy of it. Not even some sarcastic comment and a roll eyes.
Why do people want internet browsing on a console. I can't see people actually using it. Its awkward, clumsy and a waste of time.
As for PS3's selling because of Blu-Ray, thats very true. However, if stand alone players came out that were any good and cheaper than a PS3, the PS3 might not benefit so much. Until that happens tho', the PS3 does quite nicely. However, look at it the other way. If a certain number of people have bought a PS3, but not play games on it, it might make the console sell well, but not the games.

Why do you need internet browsing on a console? You have it on the PC.
Why do you need an external HDD for downloading games? I hope you're only on about demo's anyway, which you can download to a HDD which MS sell in 20gb and 120gb flavours.
Xbox live is only £30-£40 a year, it's nothing, it's less than a night out.
The price of the HDD should definitely be dropped though, £110 for 120GB? ridiculous
It is a little expensive, but you don't need the 120gb model.
I bought the Elite over the Premium, mainly for the HDD,
Me too and it was a waste of money really. I had no intention of downloading films from the Marketplace as it's better value for me to keep my Lovefilm subscription. I'd be perfectly happy with an Arcade model now.
I'm filling mine up with all the demos available, i cant afford too many games right now so i'll use the demos and keep them as a mini-library in the mean-time

I never understand why people do this unless they are desperate for the colour, I'll be getting a £150 arcade pack off the bay and a cheap hard drive to go with it, should end up saving at least a £100 off the rrp of an elite pack.
Dont you lose the wireless controller and headset with that too? And another big reason is that i needed HDMI, if i'm going up to HD gaming i may aswell take that little extra step and use the best connection.
I got the elite for £280

Arcade comes with a wireless pad and 256mb Memory Card. Dunno about headset.
