I should be getting the Xbox Live Vision Camera in the next week or so (thanks microsoft! :thumbsup:) so i'm really keen to try everything out, those effects look cool! BTW is the poker game coming out on XBL today the one where you can make ur own character using the camera or is that a different poker game?

No, I believe that's a retail game(World Series of Poker or something?). Pretty sure Texas Hold'em does support the camera though.

exactly what was going through my mind,I thought it would have been the size of a 5 1/2 inch external bay but seems to be alot bigger unless she is a midget lol even the wheel attachments seemed big and awkward, but m$ will suck us all in to buying all the new goodies, you know the temptation will get the better of us in the end ;)

Well you can see the size in relation to the Wi Fi adapter. I have an external DVD drive and it must be about two thirds the size of the Xbox 360, so it all makes sense.
I have the Wi Fi adapter and the size comparison between that and my external DVD burner is about the same is the size comparison to the Xbox 360 HD DVD drive.

I reckon the chick sounded quite nice - floats my boat.... Anyway I digress. Hopefully the steering wheel will be of good quality, it looks like it is. I also hope that you can adjust the sensitivity in the wheel and it remembers settings. It should also not have any problems with compatibility like so many did with the old xbox. It has been a long time since there was a wheel worth getting for any console, and even less games that work with them. IMHO it is the only way to play driving games.
I like the headset and will definitely get one. It is good to have the wireless controller but having a wired headset knid of defeats the purpose a bit. If you need to take a dump you either take the controller with you or rip off the headset. Its a pain in the arse. I want to be liberated.

The wireless racing wheel will retail for $149 US, with PGR3 included.
The Xbox 360 Wireless Racing Wheel will rev up cyber drivers in November for $149.99. As a bonus, Microsoft will also include a copy of a force-feedback version of Bizarre Creations' Project Gotham Racing 3 (while supplies last).

The headset will retail for US$59.95 so that would probably be about $90 here. Not too bad.
