Dec 4th! for the Fall update. What I know so far is being able to download
Original Xbox games over LIVE to play on the 360 at $15 each I believe.
Something I just don't care about because I don't have time as it is to play
all the great 360 games. I hope there's a lot of other new features.

Ya, that link was pretty worthless. Have to hunt around xbox.com to find
it? Lame, if your going to post a link, have it actually go where it needs
to. Anyway, I did a little looking about and it seems there's a leak of
what's going to be added this time. Until it's official, I wouldn't 100%
trust this. It does sound pretty good though.

Too bad people can't look up things for themselves. Follow the links on the
page. That's what I did on my own, besides reading www.majornelson.com.

I have no problem looking things up if need be, which is what I did, but if
your going to post a link someplace for the answer, the least you can do is
link to where the info is, otherwise your wasting a persons time. I went to
Xbox.com did search for Fall Update and what did I get? Nothing of
importance. I got a November 2006 Fall Update link and a bunch of other
worthless links. Same if you just enter update. So doing a search on
Xbox.com is not as easy as you make is sound. I still haven't found it, and
I'm not going to waste my time continuing there. Yes I know about
Majornelson.com also, but even there it wasn't much info. Basically being
able to download old Xbox games on your 360. If that was it, who cares.
Even just going to www.majornelson.com and doing a search there was
worthless. Fall update, 360 update, Nothing!

Going to google and enter Fall 360 update 2007 gives you better results.
With links to,
http://www.xbox360fanboy.com/2007/10/26/rumor-leaked-screens-show-iptv-and-fall-update/
http://www.joystiq.com/2007/08/21/xbox-360-fall-dashboard-update-rumored-to-include-xvid-support/

http://www.shacknews.com/onearticle.x/49899

I'm all for people searching on there own and finding the info themselves.
Which is why I usually say go to google or another search engine and find
the info themselves. Not here's a link, now hunt for the info there.

Those are all Rumors. The ONLY feature MS has announced so far is the
ability to download Xbox games. Some of those may just be wishful thinking.
The only known thing for sure is the Update will happen Dec 4th. So
sometime from then to now, MS will announce what features the 360 will
really get.

Both of those are just that, RUMORS. I wouldn't count on it.
