I was just wondering if you guys think the xbox 360 will have dvr capibilites (or if its even possible)?. I was just talking about it with my friend, because microsoft is going for multimedia and more than just a game console i think this would really up sales if it was possible.
Edit Searched around and found this http//www.engadget.com/entry/1234000040042613/ it looks very much like it will have dvr

I don't think so. It would require a signal input along with a service to provide the tv guide with all the shows.

It has a media center extender built into it. So if you have a media center PC connected to it then you can view recorded shows over a network. Google Media Center Extender and you'll get a better picture.

I thought they had different sizes, quote for official site
"Detachable and upgradeable 20GB hard drive" i was assuming upgreadable meant larger sizes. You could always just get two 20's since they are detachable
