Why don't you phone Xbox customer support and find out?

Never heard about this. It might be true, but I personally have never heard of it. I'm sure they could do it if you gave them some extra money.

heres what my friend is doing: getting his rrod'd box repaired, and when it gets back he's trading it in for credit towards an elite at a game shop.

WOW!! Just called xbox, my xbox has already been repaired and so I didn't have a chance to ask them. It only took them a week and a half?? I was expecting 5-6weeks like the guy told me. Do they actually repair them or just send out refurb's?

Yeah they're pretty quick with repairs thankfully, I got my own back and it's worked perfectly ever since (going on 6 months). I've never heard of being able to upgrade though...I guess it works at car dealerships, why not at MS?

You can't upgrade... They might come to the assumption you killed your system on purpose IMO and put the whole "opened case voided warranty" thing on you straight off of assumption.
