They also quoted the price in EURO and POUNDS, so I guess there'll be a UK and european release.

If you can wait, just wait. If you can't, just get it. No big difference really.

If you're planning to go unmodded, your machine's covered under warranty anyways. The 65nm promises cooler chips, but in reality, it doesn't affect your gaming experience at all.

As for Elite, it just comes with additional HDMI + 120GB HDD. That's all. If you're not purchasing and downloading TV shows from US, there's not much use for the 120GB.

The 3ROD's caused by the X Clamp, which causes the motherboard to flex. You can read more about it in another thread, just look around.

Even if they were to switch to 65nm processors, that might fixed the 3ROD problem, but at the same time, it might introduce some new problems with it as well. When that happen, will you wait still? smile.gif

If you're getting unmodded consoles, you don't really have to worry lar. Just get it, and play like mad. If you were to be greeted by the dreaded ring of deaths, just send it back. If you're too lazy to wait, just replace the xclamp like what I did.
