Lowering it to $50? That's crazy.

Microsoft needs to pony up refunds for everyone that bought their HDDVD drives or at least offer some sort of trade in credit on a blue ray equivalent.

Games that need to be released in blue ray must be huge. Im sure they will eventually switch. Im not that worried about it. A few big wigs might get fired for picking a loser, but I doubt it will have much impact on Xbox 360 sale.

Personally, I'm skipping this generation of video players. I don't feel the need to upgrade. If I need one for loading large programs maybe eventually.

Thanks again. It looks like I am going to have to do something on this front soon. The wife was complaining about the ethernet cordI have run from my computer room to the xbox. She wanted to know how hard it would be to just plug it in whenever I wanted to use the xbox.

[QUOTE="dieworm"][QUOTE="SpideR_CentS"]I just bought one for $30.00 that works for xbox 1 or 360. I hope it works ok. Im not paying $100 for a wireless adaptor its ludacrisRLMEsq

Really?! Where!? 30 bucks sounds great. plz tell

I think he's talking about the Logitech Play Link, which sells for less than thirty bucks on Amazon or Buy.com. It has two small cubes that plug into the ethernet ports on your router and Xbox 360. Since the units are paired, there is no need to deal with your router's security settings. Think of it as a wireless alternative to a network cable -- you could use one anyplace you could run ethernet cable.

I use one with my 360 Elite and it works just fine for gaming, but it's very slow for Xbox Live downloads. That isn't much of a problem, though, since the May 2007 software update allows your Xbox to download in the background after you power off.

But if you used those, would it require you to disable the wirless security for the other devices?

I was hoping to get some opinions on the wirless adapter.  Does it support most security standards?  Would you recommend it?
