Looks pretty good. It's what the 360 should of been originally imo. Built in wireless and optical. no need for silly adaptors.

I doubt it but it anywhere will be doing trade ur old box in for money off deals i'd be tempted.

The problem with the trade in is that game are offering stupid money for your old unit when the Modern warfare 2 console came out they offered £100 quid trade in on an elite unit and that's not worth it so god help what they offered for the prem or arcade version.
