    I'd stick with the one you got, after all its sitting in front of you. There is always some something new just around the corner to wait for, you could wait a lifetime to buy the next big thing because there is always a new next big thing.

    Plus without two TVs next to each other the layman can never tell the difference between 1080 and 720, even two same brands next to each other I often get it wrong. (the company I work for does all this AV stuff).

    Don't panic and get playing!

    How can sad-old-Sony hope to compete with an updated XBox 360 - complete with Live - and the ability to play against PC gamers - at half the price ?

    Also, developers need to 'follow the money' and develop games that people will buy...

    ...with an installed user base of way past 10 million, the XBox 360 represents a monty-hoard of consumer-base-money that's just waiting to be plundered...

    ...whilst the head-honchos @ sad-old-Sony are on their knees every night , praying for something to help them overcome the MASSIVE 18 month lead they have handed gargantuan Gates and his gilt-edge game machine

    Fantasticly interesting read.

    I was considering the plunge on a 360, no I wonder if it is worth the wait, although doubtful as there is not even a date, for which to wait.
    It is Inevitable.....

    Yeah I have decided I am not waiting anymore, no release date and the product manage at Scan who phoned MS says they are saying maybe even Xmas (does that last bit even make sense?).

    And no wireless integrated and no reduction in die size for the chip means to me its not worth waiting for, its a great product already so I'll get one anyway.

    I guess the sensible thing to do would be to get shot of my bog-standard 360 just now for a decent price, and buy a PS3 now, and the Elite later.

    But I'll probably never fill the current 20 Gb HDD, and I don't have any spare HDMI sockets anyway. Likin' the black though

    Wish we had some firm info about release
