"WHITTEN: Yes! The Play and Charge kit includes a rechargeable battery and micro-USB cable, with a charging indicator light. It will be available at launch for $24.99."

Wait, I don't understand what this means. It doesn't come with a rechargeable battery in the XO box? That can't be right, can it? Or is this just a replacement if needed?

No that's right, it's just like the 360 with the batts although I'm unfamiliar with what the kit costs for the 360.

I didn't know that.  I just assumed the controller would be rechargeable.  That's kind of lame, to be honest.  A way to keep the XO price down a bit, though, I guess.
