More rumors have surfaced as IGN as the source. The Xbox 720, allegedly codenamed "loop," will be much smaller than the 360. They are stating this will help get production cost down enough to heighten the Kinect adoption rates.

The processor will have a "main" core which will have "multiple dedicated assistive cores for graphics, AI, physics, sound, networking, encryption and sensors. It will be custom designed by Microsoft and two partners based on the ARM architecture." Additionally, this set-up will be based off the Zune HD hardware. I can not stress enough that all these are rumours and should not be taken as fact until detailed specs come to fortion at next years E3, which is also rumored to be the official annoucement of the system.
