So Microsoft plans to sell another 25 million Xbox 360 in this coming 5 years. They say they are going have a 'huge' announcement for the 360 this coming E3 hmm.gif. Are they releasing another slimmer version of the x360 at a lower price? And what about codename stingray? Is that the rumored slimmer x360?

QUOTE
Thurrott, who has proven track record of leaking major Microsoft updates, mentioned that Microsoft officials briefed him on the secretive project during a What The Tech Podcast this past Friday. What exactly is Stingray? Hopkins says that it’s a low-cost box that will deliver the secondary services currently available through Xbox 360.  According to Thurrott’s sources, the product will be priced to compete with set-top boxes such as Ruko.

they already had a plan for a xbox without a drive, to act as a TV box of some sort, and play digital content only (GoD & arcade games)
I guess it's mainly for US market only, since MS has lots of contracts with the cable operators there
it will be pretty useless over here in Asia

It seems MS current marketing direction is to concentrate on their US soil only, totally abandoning the Asian market doh.gif

Its xbox-mini. Possibly shipping outside of US/UK and i presumed there will be a contract based and "out-of-the box" system.

no HD-rom and have a huge HDD - 500gb possibly. Running using x360 architecture. So i m pretty sure it will be microsoft solution to backward compatibility and x360 arcade/GOD library.

Simple, They expect you to keep your current console for your current game.

Its the same console as xbox 360, just trim down version.

Its account based system (GT), so all your contents are intact. The transition between both consoles are seemless as long as internet (XBL) is present

Mostlikely XBOX. Xbox TV is just speculation, since their new consoles has TV function.

the new xbox one has xbox TV integrated

the xbox mini is cut down version of xbox360 with xbox TV integrated.

MS solution to shove TV into everyones throats when its a requirement to have a TV to play.

Serious note; both consoles have the same function just that both consoles game library is completely different (because of different architecture)

IGN says don't waste your time getting this new slightly slimmer and less functional machine for the same price as the current x360.
