Will it be cheaper than the bone ?
If so i will buy one

Should be cheaper, the only reason to really buy one of those imo.

But I'm sceptical, it does seem a little weird with their whole BC push currently to bring out a system that would essentially eliminate your ability to play your old 360 games on X1 again.

You would still be able to play 360 games on a disc less X1 since all the 360 will be added to the marketplace and those games don't read off the disc on the current X1 either since you have to download the game and put it on your HDD.
