Picked this up today on a whim while I was in Best Buy picking up some crimps so that I can hook my subwoofer up (yeah I'm going to throw it in now):

Looks pretty sweet! All the employees there that were gamers that I talked to said it's supposed to be a really really good thing to have, considering one of the XBOX 360s biggest oversights is that it overheats like its going out of style. I've already sent my 360 back to Microsoft once for repairs, probably due to overheating.... even on gaming sessions that are not very long (~2 hours) I'll try to post up some thoughts after I try it out. It was $25 and runs off of the 360 power source constantly.
On a side note, a kid at Best Buy told me that it's not a good idea to stand up the 360 vertically even though you can. Apparently it causes it to overheat faster because there is venting on the grey plastic part on the bottom.
