but I wonder how many people would buy a Durango and a BC box... |
you should think the other way around.. I think the new360 will be placed as THE media box out there even outselling durango.. but when people want more they'll get a durango with it cause it works so nicely with the new360.. I even wouldn't be surprised if the new360 would get yearly revisions and a new game part every 6 to 8 years..

So let me get this straight:
If you are an XBox360 owner, you probably get royally srewed by Microsoft, once again? It is very suspicious that all that tv stuff suddenly seems to go into a dedicated "Small Xbox" (and it can be expected this miracle box comes with dedicated entertainment software) . So can the old XBox360 also work as "Small Box"? Or do XBox360 users HAVE to get the "Small Box" for the entertainment pack?

The entertainment pack is for both devices.. I see it more as an trojan horse opening up a different market.. people will have the choice getting only the media device and the option of the game device later on.. while more hardcore audience will get the game device with the same media functions except the 360 BC.. one is a heavy multimedia device with light gaming abilties the other is a heavy game device with heavy multimedia abilities.. with this strategy they are attempting to tackle a much larger audience then only gamers..
I can see myself having the multimedia device in my bedroom and the game device in the livingroom..

$599!
Seriously though, this seems like a good way to get gamers and non gamers alike into the Xbox ecosystem. Xbox mini as a set top box for people who want to stream stuff and play some games on the side and the Next box as a more gaming orientated platform.
