HDMI

Microsoft have told Shacknews that a new revision of the Xbox 360 Premium with an HDMI port is now shipping to retailers:

Yes, we are offering an HDMI port for Xbox 360 simply as another choice in Xbox 360 owners’ games and entertainment experience […] Retailers are gradually introducing HDMI-enabled Xbox 360s into the channel to meet demand.

No news on the rest of the world yet, other than Xbox Australia rather predictably telling Kotaku:

This is not something that will affect ANZ [Australian & New Zealand] retailers or consumers for some time yet.

Whether you’re an affluent early-adopter fresh out out of HDMI inputs on your 70″ Plasma, or a newly-broke student with a newly-bought PlayStation 3 rockin’ through the 18″ standard-def TV you got for Christmas five years ago (we forgive you…) - you’ll want to know about this new gadget from XCMLive. The HDMI/DVI Crossover Selector is a 5-in, 1-out HDMI switch, including an HDMI-to-DVI adapter, so you can enjoy 1080P goodness from five HDMI sources on your TV or PC monitor.
