It would actually make a LOT of sense for them to include the external drive at $399, especially since Sony might try to duplicate the $100 price drop on their 20GB system in the US at the last minute (which is EXACTLY what I think they’re planning if not right away at the very latest after the initial batch goes out).

Rant: Personally I’d prefer an internal HD-DVD drive - I’d even pay $199 and ship my 360 in to MS to have it swapped out - but since that doesn’t seem to be an option I’ll be getting the external drive :P

Hi,

MS will most likely incorporate a HD DVD drive once the price drops low enough. My guess is we will see it for November 2007. The technology may offer a HD drive that has twice the storage that the current HD has.
