I also read today the the 360 will support just about any USB keyboard plugged into it (similar to what happens when you plug in a USB keyboard for for Windows.) So, that is encouraging.

Also, this crap coming from MS about how they had to cut features to make an affordable console is sickening. $100 for a 20GB HDD? Please. $100 for a wifi adapter? Stop it, you’re just insulting us.

No, no. What’s going on here is that they’re still producing the core system at a loss, so they MUST charge exorbitant prices for these accessories so they can start thinking about making a profit on this thing.

I also think $50 for a wireless controller is lame, but whatever.
