These look more like artists' impression or design concept renderings to me. Note for example the differing orientation of the eject button's marking and the text style on the memory unit slots. In particular the image displayed in this newspiece (rather than those linked, which show much less complete views of the device) is fairly obviously an artificial image, and may be an early submission for the prospective form of the device. There's still quite some time before the launch, so I would think that changes at least to its external styling are likely to happen before then.

cant wait for the new xbox!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i think this shit look's like playstation console as in shape and type. Xbox should do better than this.
