Thank god I got the Elite when I did anyway......

Back then, it was excellent because of the huge HDD AND HDMI ports....... but now, even the premium models has HDMI and HDDs can be upgraded........ soooooooooooooooooooo........

What say you all? Yay or nay?

Yay.I don't think it came to much use anyway.
They're selling 120GB HDDs now.
I mean it was great when it first came out,but now Premium = Elite with half the HDD size.
But it's not like you need the HDD space anyway.We don't get marketplace movies and such >_>

My original Elite was a Zephyr. But thanks to a DVD Drive defect, I sent it back to Singapore and got a Falcon instead.....

Well...it's supposed to be Limited Edition in the first place. laugh.gif

My personal say is it doesn't made much difference. The market gonna lost a black 360 option, that's all.

I thought the availability of the harddisk is very scarce?

We owned elites because we can afford one.

I smell a fanboy. smile.gif

And hopefully with this, we can see less retailers racking up elites or limited edition for the arcades or less expensive bundles of 360s.
Either way, we as gamers will reap the benefits. smile.gif
