According to their source—who also told them about the impending 60GB switch-out prior to E3—the Arcade is dropping to $199, the 60GB Pro to $299, and the 120GB Elite to $399. So say we all.

The upgrade promises to shrink the ATI graphics chip to 65nm and reduce the size of the memory chips as well. If true, this could reduce build costs and the heat problems that have plagued the 360. Although Takahashi notes that Microsoft believes they already have the heat situation under control. The upgrade is expected in August of '08. [Kotaku]
