    "All we know so far is that it'll be shiny, black, and part of the Modern Warfare 2 bundle for $399."

    Not to be a total wise-ass, but it looks like it's a matte finish (well, at all but the power button recess).

    Am I the only one that doesn't use up any of the hard drive space? These upgrades just don't do anything to excite me.

    @wesschoenhofer: I don't copy games (I didn't even know you could??) nor do I do anything else...except sometimes download demos or extra tracks on rock band. I just looked at my PS3 and I don't even think I've used up 1 GB. I just put the disc in and play.

    @jakebathman: its a feature from microsoft, allowing a game to load faster, the disk still has to be in the drive.

    @Geeum: That sounds fantastic, but it sounded even cooler when I thought I wouldn't have to worry about scratched discs again.

    But I have a PS3, so it's a moot point all around.

    "although what that extra space would be used for is anyone's guess."

    I would probably fill it with demos and putting games on the hdd. Those can eat up quite a bit of room.

    I wouldn't get too excited. 250 GB is just 120 of our imperial gigabytes in metric.

    @dingus: My 120 is full, but I am playing around with Indie Game development, so I must admit the 250 would be nice to have. My Media Center machine has nearly 2tb that is full, but now Hulu has me wondering why I ever recorded that stuff. ;)

    In reply to Comcast Usage Meter Coming in January to Help Users Avoid Data Cap Overages
    they better get crackin' on a REAL-time meter! Every cellphone company in the world has a prettydarn-close-to-REAL-time meter, so they can do it to. If they are going to charge their customers for overages, the customers should have an accurate way to measure it, not a delayed one.


    Common Comcast, this is technology age, get with the program! And don't use a "it takes time" excuse. (time is microseconds to the internet)

    @thecolor: That's because the phone tracks usage individually, versus a polling method that requires back-end processing to display a pretty web picture.


    Not really anywhere near the same thing. If all of your devices connected to the internet were capable of tracking their own use, report it, then it could maybe be closer to realtime. Otherwise, it requires a polling system.

    So users using it for legal means are treated like criminals. Downlaods for my Zune & Xbox, playing Xbox Live, Streaming Netflix, Sync files on Mesh, etc., I will easily exceed the cap. And I don't use B/T either. Damn!
