However what could they strip out to reach such a price point?, what is current xbox 360 US price?

$199 for the Arcade with 4GB Flash memory. It was as low as $180 MSRP for the holidays, and $130-$150 thru Black Friday. Also was $199 with Skylanders at Wal-Mart for a white version. Either way $99 is a huge drop, and I doubt MS is profiting $80+ off each console right now so this rumor does boggle my mind. That's why I'm figuring maybe $130-$150, which is still really cheap either way.

The $299/399 Kinect bundles and the 299 250gb 360 is where most of the profits come from. And if they were all slashed by even $100 each they would still eek out a small profit id think.
