-Your contacts will integrate Windows Live Messenger, and show joinable session status
-Your live messenger contacts can see what game you're playing, and your gamertag as well
-Marketplace will "have its own blade, which will be skinned independent of your theme"
-You can watch partially downloaded movies
-Other updates include "Users will now get inline achievement updates", "Low-power download mode and auto-shutdown", "You can text chat messenger six friends playing games watching movies" and finally a few tweaks to the interface.

I think MS can't do anything about the flashed drives and is just moving on with newer mobo's and optical drive hardware. |

Comment by: fgamer (Apr 07, 2007 21:57) It'd be cool if they added a feature to allow you to set your 360 to show you offline to specific people on your freinds list besides it showing you offline to everyone. |
