Not bad at all:

If I didn't already have one, I would bite.

it is actually $329.99

best amazon customer image ever

I wonder if they are trying to clear out the old 'doesn't have an hdmi port' stock?

If someone can find out if these have the HDMI port I'll certainly bite.

While tempting, I'm waiting until I can be certain I'm getting one of the new serial numbers that have the HDMI port and heatsinks added--Microsoft is phasing out the faulty serials numbers, but I imagine you'd have to make an in-store purchase to know which version you're getting.

Ultimately, my point was: there's no way I'm paying Microsoft for a console that has such a high chance of breaking.

awww I so wanna know if they got the new ones with hdmi ... so tempting

the HDMI is almost pointless. The real kicker on the new versions is the new chips and more silent DVD drives

is this the new and improved one? any conformation?

what's up with the first review of the X360? Damn, the guy really want some attention or something?

As for the deal, meh, thanks OP, i'll wait for the new X360...

true.. just wanted the new version

Question that may be borderline unethical (if it would work) - if you bought this from Amazon, and it was a non-HDMI unit, could you buy an HDMI one at a B&M store and return the non-HDMI one to the store?

Now that I think of it, that probably would be a con-job...no go for me yet.

Console serial numbers get printed on receipts/recorded in their system at most (all?) stores. So, no, it's not likely that you could do that.

Was thinking they might do that...of course if they just scanned the box itself, not the console, they wouldn't know, but I'm not gonna risk it.

repost --- The 20 gig hard drive included with the premium is only 13.9gigs in reality, and then you have all your saves and downloads and shit, so you have very little room left to run the system off the harddrive. It's like when your computer bogs down and is slow once you fill it up, it just takes time to search all that cluttered info.

Whereas you have the elite's with 120gigs (in reality 103ish) where you don't have to worry about space. Also they are saying the after June models of the Elites have the extra heatsink, so you really shouldn't worry about RROD with those.

I'd bite if I was certain it has HDMI.

Doubt it would work, they ususally put the serial numbers on the reciepts

Good deal.
