U mean to tell me they don't have a base where you sit the controllers so they recharge.  :blink:  I dun beleive ;)

And PLEASE tell me they made it so you can change the color of the front LED to mactch the color of the skin (a.k.a if they put in 3 LEDs, RBG, and give you the power to control the intensity of each, that should at least give you 256 distinguishable colors). :ph34r:

Also, it would be AWESOME if they used the new 1min rechargable bat technology that won't be available to the public for years to come.

On the right side of the console you'll see the two front-mounted USB ports. Those two covers slide away to reveal the actual USB ports, which you can hook up your portable media player or digital camera to, or even charge your wireless Xbox 360 controller with. see...  ;)

I believe thats just an option it will come with rechargeable batteries but if you dont want to wait for them to charge you can pop in some duracells

LMAo light, a base which recharges the controller, not a stand so the dont get dirty.

Like when you put your cordless phone on a docking station to recharge.

The controller will racharge from usb or you can pop in your own batteries.

Im a suracell man, F energizer, but usb rechargables own the both of em.
