    I've not heard of them planing to release it in black but it does seem odd as the Elite is their prize console

    I'm sure I read a couple of months ago that there were no plans to release a black one. Seems a bit crazy to me.

    You can get 3rd party black cases for the HD-DVD, they will void warranty though

    Microsoft gave black ones out to developers as a thank you before the drive was released to the public, I've seen one or two on ebay but they hit stupid prices.
