Engadget Gets More Details on IPTV on Xbox 360

Engadget has recently posted some details they have about Microsoft releasing a new version of the Xbox 360 with new hardware and features, including IPTV. Hopefully the following isn’t true:

It still seems a bit unreasonable for Microsoft, which has been bragging about its 10 million strong installed base, to leave those early adopters out in the cold, but if that’s the way it goes down we can’t say we won’t welcome the excuse to ditch the fan and disc drive hullabaloo of our current gen box.

I can see why there would need to be a new hardware version, but I’ve got to think there would be a secondary expansion kit that might become available to make an existing Xbox 360 become even closer to a home theater portal in the living room.
