TeamFSD Brings you something new: RxE
>> From teamfsd.com:
[QUOTE]
A pictures worth a thousand words so heres a little view of whats going on now.

Now, on to a few things. First, RxE is the new direction of Freestyle Dash. While RxE is a complete overhaul/rebranding of the previous dash, it still has all the great features you know and love from FSD. The RxE reincarnations of these features have all been recoded, redesigned, rethought to achieve a fast, clean, stable, and exciting experience. The Real Xbox Experience.

Below is a preview of some features:
--- Kinect Gesture and Voice integration
RxE has full support for the kinect sensor. Skeletal tracking and voice recognition
will allow you to navigate the dash with just your hands and/or your voice.
--- Private Messaging linked to TeamFSD.com
Send messages to your friends, view your TeamFSD.com contacts, share your avatars
and even video chat. Private messaging is a communication hub for all
TeamFSD.com members
--- CoverFlow
The game list has been redesigned using the popular coverflow layout. In addition
to coverflow, we're providing many other layout types, like bookshelf, catalog, and
RxeFlow- a spin off of the old FSDFlow game list layout. Beyond that, users
will be able to create their own layouts and share them.
--- Brand New Menu System
The new menu system is 100% dynamic, 100% configurable. You want your menu
to consist of 1 icon that leads to Xbox 360 Games, then go for it. You want your
most recent game to be the default selection, then go for it. The possibilities
are endless with the new menu system.
--- Rip DVD To God
Not only can you rip your games from DVD as an extracted package, you can also rip your
games straight to GOD if you want to have access to them NXE as well.
--- Faster File Transfers
The file manager has been recoded and redesigned. File Operations approximately 10
times faster to both internal HDDs and USB drives.

More features and screenshots will be released in the coming weeks and hope everyone looks forward to this release as much as we do.

Wasabi Ultra Menu System *Update*
>> The Wasabi team also comes with news about their upcoming ODD emulator device:
[QUOTE]
Team Wasabi are proud to present Wasabi 360 Ultra running on the Xbox 360!

At this time we would also like to introduce you to a very unique, intuitive feature that is an integral part of the Wasabi 360 experience. We bring you the world's first implementation of an Xbox 360 side on-screen menu navigation system for an optical disc emulator. No need to interact with a small box/LCD for feedback or navigation. Simply navigate the on-screen menu system to select ISO's using your Xbox 360 controller.

No need to get off the sofa, press any device side buttons or suffer any inconvenience. Watch the following video as we navigate through the XMB to select and execute game ISO's.

Keep an eye out for our next Wasabi 360 Ultra demonstration video which will be posted over the next few days. Ultimate performance, maximum innovation. Team Wasabi.

*Update* We've been contacted by people who are concerned that the way in which Wasabi 360 Ultra implements its menu system can be trivially blocked by a future update of the Xbox 360 dashboard. This is simply not the case, as we will explain. The Wasabi 360 Ultra menu system works by taking advantage of a fundamental feature provided by the Xbox 360 system software - the ability to play media from end-user burnt data discs. The Wasabi 360 Ultra menu system works by mimicking such a data disc; from the perspective of the Xbox 360 it only sees standard data discs being inserted, there is no exploit involved and no way this system can be fundamentally blocked. As long as Xbox 360 supports playing media from data discs, our menu system will work. Even in the very unlikely event that this feature is removed in a future system software, we have developed alternative methods by which ISO's can be selected.

Xecuter CoolRunner Update
>> From team-xecuter.com:
[QUOTE]
We have just completed v3 of the CoolRunner mod design for the Reset Glitch Hack and have deviated quite a lot from the original schematic released by GliGli / Tiros.

Booting is now pretty much 100% accurate and is a very clean / solid install with a couple of extra features that others don't have.

Still want to keep details close to our chest as there are a lot of other cloners/copies/alternative versions of the original public schematic. Naturally you can trust Xecuter as always

Price is still on target for RRP $19.99 and should be in stores next week.

JTAG Content Manager v1.5
>> Xamphear released JTAG Content Manager 1.5:
[QUOTE]
What This App Does:
* Browse 360 files on your PC by their real info, like game name and package title.
* Upload files (XBLA, DLC, GOD, Avatar, Title Update) to your console over FTP with a single click. Files are automatically uploaded to the right folders.
* Drag and drop files to other applications, if you'd prefer to use your own FTP client.
* Organize a messy folder of downloaded content into 1 of 4 different directory styles. Restore the original filenames for XBLA and DLC files.
* View the MediaID of Title Updates and GODs so you can match them, and search JQE and XBUC for matching TUs.
* View the MediaID of ISO files. (Requires abgx360)

What's new/fixed:
Size column on upload screen. Fixed size labels on upload screen, all
sizes listed in MB now. Fixed bug in abgx360 detection. Fixed bug that
caused error messages when selecting files and uploading in some regions.
More accurate speed during uploads. Time remaining and progress percentage
added to window title and tray icon. Other bug fixes.

Exploit 360 v1.0.0
>> SneakyPeanut released Exploit 360 v1.0.0 - which is a new version of what was previously called Easy FreeBoot - now with added features for the Reset Glitch Hack:
[QUOTE]
This time around it's a completely new application coded from the ground up to make creation of images even simpler.

This new application goes by the name Exploit 360 and is a creation tool for both images for JTAGed Xbox 360s AND consoles exploited using the new Reset Glitch by Gli Gli. This program was designed to be as simple to use as possible but still have advanced features, such as the built in SMC configuration editor.

Please note that this is Easy FreeBoot's successor and all future support and updates will go to Exploit 360.

What's new/fixed since EFB:
* Support for the reset glitch exploit.
* Brand new GUI.
* Removed support for creating older versions of FreeBoot, only 13599 kernel is supported.
* Improved overall console detection.
