i think you mean the xbox2, they cannot release the current xbox without HD because a few games rely on it of loading i.e halo Xbox 2 won`t be out before next year :)

Yep, Xbox 2 is the one minus hard drive (stupid idea, if you ask me). I don`t think it will be out till late 2005 or early 2006, mind.

From what I`ve read, the xbox2 won`t have a hard disc, but will have some form of flash memory inside, and looking at whats available on compact flash now, a 2gb memory isn`t out of the question.
