Lite-On developing BD-ROM drives for Xbox 360?
>> From digitimes.com: [QUOTE] Lite-On IT is developing built-in Blu-ray Disc-(BD) ROM drives for the Microsoft Xbox 360 game console, according to industry sources. Lite-On declined to comment, citing client confidentiality.
Lite-On's shipments of the BD ROMs to Microsoft will start in the second half of 2008, the sources added. Lite-On is currently one of the suppliers of Xbox 360-use internal DVD-ROM drives.
Power supply makers also revealed that while the present Xbox 360 uses a 210-watt power supply, the next-generation game console will use a 170-watt power supply in order to reduce production cost and the size of the device, according to the sources. [/QUOTE]
Note: Yes, I am aware of todays date, but I don't think it's very popular in Taiwan where digitimes is based. Anyway it's a rumor, so take with a grain of salt. About the PSU, well that's no rumor but they got their timeline a bit wrong ... some Falcon (v3) 360s already ship with a 175W PSU compared to the old 203W PSU.
