I've been worried since I heard that 512MB was going to be reserved for the OS, that leaves what, 1GB for gaming? It's double the HD twins, but I'd been hoping for more.

The 512 that is reserved for the OS is not part of the 1.5 that is for gaming.

I hadn't heard this.  In fact, what I had heard was that the Dev Kits at 1.5 gb of ram, and that it was likely that it would be reduced for the production unit.
