Just wondering if it's ok to bite on one yet.

dissonance said:Great, thanks guys. I've been out of the loop for a while as I was moving and finding a job so I appreciate the help. How about the wireless controllers? I have a ceiling projector and it'd be easiest to put the xbox to my right side as opposed to in front of me like most people. I'm just wondering if that would work or if I'd need to make other plans.

It doesn't get that hot. It warms up, but it's far from hot. People who say it gets incredibly hot are Sony/Nintendo fan boys talking out of their ass, put it in a place with minimal air circulation, or have no idea what hot is. Some people seem to correlate any elevated temperature with "on fire" because they are used to consoles generating next to no heat.Greenwit said:How much heat does it actually generate....is it similar to PC heat?

Bought a Linksys wrt54g wireless router that practically installed itself and the XBox wireless adapter communicated with it immediately. Noticed no problems with sound or heat. Everything works great so far on my 50" HD plasma. Kameo looks great.

The offical xbox360 wireless adapter is $100, but any wireless bridge will work (I have seen them for under $30). The orginal xbox wireless adapter also works and can be found for under $50.dissonance said:Wow the wireless network adapter for the 360 is $100???

RE: OP
Out of my friends 7 of us have xbox360s. None of us have faulty xbox360s. Electrons break so ofcourse you are going to hear bitching on the internet when you ship over 4 million in a few months. 3-5% of 4 million anyone?
