I still think Microsoft ought to allow trade ins of the old Xbox360 premium packages on the elite and customers only needing to pay $125 for it at most. Of course I bet Im the only here who thinks that.

So at the current exchange rate that would make it $670 (OVER $2 > £ at present), More than $200 than in the US.
thats verging on criminal :eek:

Here in the UK the elite version isn't really worth paying for.

The only major differences are the HDMI port and 120GB HDD (If i remember correctly it doesn't use a smaller manufacture process on the cpu etc)

Now in the US the extra hard drive is worth having as they have the ability to download full movies etc so the space is required. But over here we don't have that ability and with the majority of people who own xbobx 360s likely also owning pcs (due to their relative cheapness nowadays) and the fact that data can be shared between pc and the xbox 360 over any simple network there isn't really any need for the extra space on the xbox.

I think you are...;)

It would be nice if they allowed trade-ins, but we bought our Xbox 360's early. Companies always add more features/improve on their products (like the PS2 Slim, DS Lite), and we can't do anything about it.

Would be nice, but I'm not complaining (only wish the stand-alone HD was cheaper).

Demos fill the HDD so easily. Demos range from 500MB to 1.6GB from what I've seen. At some point, you end up constantly deleting stuff so you can download videos, demos and Arcade games.
