they're marketing it as a portable solution for the 360 , except you need to plug in both the monitor and the 360 now.. i think they should sell this in the states as a LAN party and anti TV hog tool.. here's the IGN article
" April 16, 2007 - Microsoft's oft-rumored plans for a portable Xbox may have just been spoiled. The latest peripheral from the same folks that brought the world the Onimusha sword controller and the Final Fantasy X-2 gun controller promises to deliver true Xbox 360 gaming on-the-go. Assuming you've got a bag big enough to house an Xbox 360. Hori finalized today release plans for the Compact TFT Monitor EX, an LCD monitor that can be attached to your Xbox 360 with minimal effort. The 36,750 yen 12.1 inch monitor outputs 720p and gets its signal from the 360 via analogue RGB. Sound is output via stereo speakers below the monitor, or you can plug in headphones. The only thing keeping this from turning your 360 into a true portable unit is the power. You'll have to find a place to plug in the power adapters for the 360 and the monitor. Yes, as should be expected of an LCD monitor, this unit has its very own AC adapter. Japanese release is set for July. If you manage to get one of these, we'd suggest a backpack with sturdy straps. "

First off the screen is too small.  But the bigger reason is that I would not be a part of LAN parties.  All of my friends live out of town and I can't invite them over for a party.
