60GB Xbox 360 pops up in Target -- where else?

Amazon and Circuit City might have that new 60GB Xbox 360 SKU up for pre-order with delivery in August, but Microsoft's game console has always tended to pop up in Targets first, and this time out's no exception -- yep, there it is, hanging out in NYC. Anyone seen one poking around the dish towels and cheap-chic furniture at their local? Let us know in comments!

Didn't Target originate from France?

Just bought an Elite this weekend - love it. Only thing that would have been better is if they had a 5.25" floppy drive built in - stupid that they don't. I mean come on!!! Oh is that off topic too much??? So sorry.

hey M!KE ! could you check this power supply for us?We are wondering if it takes less power than the old version. I heard the box is lighter as well!

[(Unverified) Posted Jul 29th 2008 6:41PM]

the box didn't feel any lighter compared to the arcade and the box was the same as the old pro

Well IgnorantTechie actually answered which hard drive you need. The hdd in the link in his post is the hdd used for the mod.

We have this SKU loaded into our system at Bestbuy in Canada already.
Retail price $349.99 CAD.
As soon as we see it i'll post it.

I just saw one at the Bedford, OH store yesterday. The price is $299.99 and the date of manufacture is July 18, 2008.

Ironically, the demo Xbox red ringed and I lol'd.

If you want to see if the Target nearest you has it available for purchase, go here:

Click "Find it at a Target Store" and enter your zip code. Bingo! Targets around Manhattan have them in stock, Targets in the SF Bay Area do not.

Can someone please tell us if they have gotten their hands on one of these yet? I'm curious to know if it has a new motherboard. At least give us the Watts on the brick!

[(Unverified) Posted Jul 30th 2008 9:26AM]
