Does anyone know when we expect to receive the Xbox complete systems with the HDMI port over here? Im not talking about the Elite or Halo Edition which I know has them as standard.

Thanks

Its not a new model, basically when stock runs out in the distributors warehouse they will order new stock which will be the new hdmi equipped models, finding one however will be a bit of a mission as only some actually state they have hdmi on the box.
However the new Falcon models are out in the states (halo edition only atm) So id hold off a month or so yet until the premiums have the falcon improvements also... but finding out which consolve has falcon b4 purchase is gonna be tricky :( its all about lot numbers, so basically hold off a bit yet.. as i am doing lol

Ok, thanks for that. It will be another month before I buy anyway. I had heard that the boxes with the HDMI port will have a sticker on them saying so. Hopefully it will also say "Falcon Chipset" as well!!!!

From what ive seen on the net from people in the states not all hdmi equippd machines say so with a sticker!! but if you can find one with that sticker then all good :-)  and nah microsoft arnt letting on what machines have the falcon chipset, you have to peer through the vents with a flashlight to find out if you do.. by the way the falcon chipset xboxs, run cooler, quieter and use less power (so are less prone to breaking) might be something to consider..
