Sembrerebbe che le lamentele che hanno seguito l'annuncio di XBox360 ELITE, abbiano fatto centro. Microsoft sembra infatti essere al lavoro per la realizzazione di un adattatore da component a HDMI. Non si sa ancora però, quando sarà reso disponibile per la vendita. L'indiscrezione è apparsa su engadget.com, a voi il testo:
Friendly tipster Evan M wasn't too stoked to see an Xbox 360 Elite headed for store shelves after he'd just purchased a Premium 360, especially considering the fact that his TV has a whole HDMI port twiddling its thumbs, just waiting to get its game on. After informing Microsoft of his displeasure through what we're sure was a politely worded email, Evan claims to have received a slightly encouraging response from a Microsoft support person, promising an upcoming HDMI to component adapter for the 'box to make his situation perhaps a bit more bearable. Unfortunately, the support person also mentioned that "we do not have information as of the moment if the cable will be sold separately,".
