This was one of those "That can't be right?" moments, this was in the window of a local CEX for only £10, so obviously I immediately bought it
It looks very much like a shrunken Xbox 360
However the disc tray and connection ports are not in the same place
The disc tray and ports would be on the sides of the Xbox 360
Size comparisons
Here is the unusually normal power brick with a figure 8 power lead and standard barrel plug
And a completely normal mini USB lead
It seems to work, but the Xbox 360 complains it can't read normal DVD's in it, so I wonder if it only plays HD-DVDs?
Apparently you can connect it to a PC and use it as an external DVD player, but you need drivers for HD-DVDs, anyway these are the meta-files each HD-DVD leaves on the unit, the only title is The Jimi Hendrix Experience
