                                    maybe...both enigmah and xtender said they could be flashed...but....i hate this...why did obscurity get so mixed in with the xbox mod scene?  And i can't believe anyone would preorder this chip when they have zero information about it.

My guess is that it will have all the features of the current mods.  I'm also guessing it will be something that snaps onto an existing chip on the xbox's mobo.  There are similar mod utilizing this design for the ps2.

I heard that rumor too, but there is still a wire that needs to be connected to ground out the onboard bios.

Their Matrix modchip is NOT the Xodus.  Notice how they even spelled OpenXBOX as "Openbox"... they are total rip-offs.

The Exodus chip IS the Matrix.  Please see http://www.xodus-chip.com if you have doubts

Look at the debug xbox... isn't it capable of playing any region?  Does it change bios' when it does this?  I don't think so... so maybe they plucked that out of the debug kit?  

                                    The BIOS in the debug box is different from the retail box to begin with.  It already allows unsigned code to run, and is region independant.

There is no reason to doubt that this new mod will be all it says it will be.

Listen, I'm ALL for this mod... but I think saying that'll take 5 minutes... well, is that a total of 5 minutes?  You can't even take your Xbox apart that quick...

I told a lot of my friends to wait on this chip... because they are worthless at soldering, and I'M not go to do it for them, fuck it up, and buy them a new xbox...

I wouldn't complain about a clip, really... as long as it works... wtf do we care about stability?  WTF are you doing with your Xbox that it might come off?  

You wouldn't necessarily have solder a ground... if the screw is place at a strategic position...IT could act as a ground... maybe.  

All I'm thinking... SINCE there are no details, it's NOT going to be as good or as easy as suspected.  Why wouldn't you show JUST how EASY it is?  Don't you think more people would preorder if they knew what they were getting?

I get it!!

The Xodus (matrix) Chip is the Bios Chips!! you have to remove your xbox Bios and replace it with the Xodus (matrix) Bios Chip........

That why it don't need any WIRES or Soldering.....

                                    hmm...this would be cool...redefining PnP indeed.

As far as we know the modchip will be flash upgradable about the same way you can do with the openxbox.

We hope we'll get a sample soon , so we can confirm all this info.

No WAY it's an IDE mod... I don't believe that for a second... if that's what they're saying then I'm worried again about the ad only mentioning import games... that would be possible, but not running unsigned code...

I really hope they prove me wrong...
