Rumor: Xbox 360 price cuts; 60GB $299, Elite $399, Arcade $199 {Joystiq Xbox}
Aug 22nd 2008 9:42AM So, let's review... when the 360 launched, you (essentially - headset, ethernet cable aside) paid $100 for 20Gb. Then when Elite launched, you paid $80 for 100Gb (and an HDMI cable, comparing the Pro to the Elite) or $180 for 120 Gb (compared to the Core).
Now, with this latest price cut, you pay $100 for 60Gb whether upgrading from from the Arcade to the new Pro or from the new Pro to the Elite. Somehow $80 for 100 Gb seems a lot better than $100 for 60Gb. What happened to MS's police of setting the price differences between the consoles on the (rediculoysly inflated) prices of the stand alone HDD?

Netflix shipping systems act a fool -- have you been delayed? {Engadget HD}
Aug 15th 2008 8:34AM Mine have been delayed as well, also says "Shipping Wednesday," though as my movies were originally expacetd to ship last Wednesday (8/13) I am not sure if this refers to the day before yesterday, or next week. I just signed up last week so I am still in my two-week free trial, so I do not know how, if at all, I will be compensated.
