Xbox 360 Elite: new, black limited edition Xbox with HDMI and 120GB drive

* The Elite will be limited quantities only; that may be as much or as little as a couple hundred thousand.
* The case, controller, and Live headset will all be black. It will have all new packaging.
* Elite will cost $479, and will be a 3rd SKU; it will be sold alongside Premium and Core packs.
* Eventually Elite hardware (in white plastics) will take the role of the Xbox Premium. That is to say, after the Elite is launched and sold out, future Xbox Premiums will have 120GB / HDMI.
* Elite models run cooler than normal 360s, but they are not yet confirmed to have 65nm chips.

Also i believe it's the case if you pay for a download you have a certain amount of time to download/re-download it, so if with MS's argument will it be once you've paid, you can download/delete the same item as many times as you like?

Fanboy alert
Must say I'm tempted. Already got a 360, but could do with a second for the living room, (so I can stream video / photos downstairs).

Funny few years ago you only used to be able to get a black console, all wanted silver, white or clear. Funny what a few years do.
I'm gonna stick with the current colour's although maybe one of the new generation with the extra holes in the back once the Black Ltd go

That would nearly be funny if it made any sense 
I'm certainly not a fanboy of any kind. In my games room (bedroom) I currently have a ps1, ps2, psp, dreamcast, nes, snes, megadrive, game gear, atari st, amiga a600, 2 pcs, and a 360. I'd have a ps3 as well now if there were any reason to get one. If that makes me a Microsoft fanboy then so be it.

The colour doesn't seem to have hurt the sales of the white Wii, or the pink PS2 though. Personally I don't care what colour it is as long as it has good games

But it's not white, it's a funny off white colour that doesn't go with anything, all my kit's black with the odd bit of chrome/silver
