notice the flat inserts (black) beside the jack? IINM there are metal contacts for those inserts on the controller side, i think that's how the keyboard communicate with the controller....


however, this brings to another question... the pass through jack at the bottom of the keyboard doesn't look like its gonna accept the connector we have on the headset now (missing flat insert holes?). maybe it's just pre-production concept image... (or a hoax altogether, bwahahah - i'm just kidding). we'll just hv to wait n see...

it's just another alternative... if playing on my pc i'd always prefer a full sized usb keyboard. but on the couch, the keyboard cable is not long enough to reach the 360 and having a keyboard lying around in the living room doesn't look that nice.

like the play n charge kit, not everybody would find it useful/necessary. i hope it's not too expensive... then i'll consider

real pictures of the keyboard attachment:

even if they're gonna do such thing, banning of IPs happen on the server, no need to wait for update... :S

they said the week of may 7, it might not be today also, maybe 2moro, or the day after...

logged on around 11:30am just now, saw this:

tried again around 1.30pm, same horsesh*t appeared.

btw, im using US account... argh... please someone tell me this isn't so, anyone else seen this?

it's been one week already, still no marketplace for me. anyone else? don't tell me i'm the only one missing the marketplace?

yup, same prob. i got the "Marketplace unavailable, please try again later" screen for 1 week already, even on my other region account. XB Live n other stuff working fine. i'm connected through a router, didn't suspect it coz NAT is open and it worked properly previously, i tot it was the content ban. time to DMZ that 360, i'll let u guys know the outcome...



*edit: it might not be the router/modem after all... check this out:
