Could There Be Updates
« on: August 09, 2005, 01:22:00 AM »
i was wondering if MS was going to do any xbox software updates/upgrades via xbox live.  the distrobution infastructer is there (as everyone has xbox live silver).  couldn't they add fuctionality (especially since they have a hdd and enought power with the cpu's).  there could be a web browser, software for confrencing, and other basic pc functions.

I'm sure it's feasible, but as we've seen with how people hacked the shit out of the PSP, MS might not make the interface accessible without an XDK.  I dunno tho.

There will be dashboard exploits I bet so they will need to update/fix them they are mostly caused by buffer underruns these exploits.

Please get your grammar straightened up before you expect people to understand your post. This is what a made of it after scorching my head:

I BET there will be dashboard exploits. BECAUSE OF THIS, they will need to update/fix them. THESE EXPLOITS are mostly caused by buffer underruns.
