Yeah but still who wants to buy it?

Apparently the spin Xbots put on it is that it is a good cheap upscaler for DVDs.

cant the internal drive do that? the 360 does have a built in scaler chip...

I have no idea really, that is just what they tell me.

 It can also be used to backup your current HD DVD's (don't say pirate b/c nobody rents them anymore :P).  And also as an external DVD-ROM.  They work natively with Mac's too so it can be used as an external drive for the Macbook air.  Cheaper then the $99 solution Apple charges.

 Just b/c it's not useful to you doesn't mean others feel the same.  My wager is that at this price they won't last long.
