Xbox 360 Elite: HDMI-enabled black unit with 120GB HDD in late April
 
So, looks like the various "Zephyr" rumours were true.

Well, according to some games mag.'s April issue, which it stresses is not an April's Fool joke.

Ltd Edition black 360 "Elite", placed above the Core & Premium. HDMI output, HDMI cable, 120GB HDD, also apparently runs cooler (& hopefully quieter)....

Mmmmmmmmmmmm.


A white "Elite" will allegedly then replace the Premium later in the year.

Hopefully that white one will be the 65nm one. I'd be inclined to wait for that.

YES!

I have been waiting to get one and now looks like the time :D *Although I do hope they include the 65mm chips, on the bright side buying this will mean your sure of having the quietier drive that started being put in during december

Yes, They will. No word on cost other than less than $200 (around £100) expect it between £130 and £150 i would think

Rip off like the 20gb ones then!

Especially when its just a bog standard 2.5" sata drive in a box basically.

Seems way too expencive to me... $20 less that the USA PS3 price, and still no wireless or HD Drive or free life subscription to xbox live... Ouch! i think MSoft just matched the PS3 on price, but forgot to match the features.

No, its the 20gb PS3 that it is $20 less than. Which is also missing a lot of features.
