The Elite's purpose is to make MS profit. If they're losing money on the Arcade model, surely they make some back on Elites.

Therefore I don't really see why they should discontinue it.

Elite comes with HDMI cable. The other X360 models, you have to buy the HDMI cable separately. The new model X360 have HDMI on the back.

@nunomex: According to this article, MS, has been adding HDMI to the Premium model since August 2007:

i bought a 10 foot HDMI cable for 12 bucks lol. So the HDMI cable is moot

At last, some sanity.

The less SKU's the better.

I am glad I have my Elite...:).....I love it.

On topic, if MS decides against another price cut, 120g HDD on Premiums at current price point would be a nice implementation.

Hmmmm, guess we shall see.
