It appears that Microsoft is not done creating different versions of the Xbox 360. After taking some criticism over time regarding the fact that the HD-DVD drive is a seperate attachment, it looks like enough is enough. This article over at Mobile Whack tells us of the upcoming monster system.

The next-gen console war is going to get a lot more uglier in 2008 by all indications. Nintendo's Wii has already found its niche with its innovative and cool way of playing games with the Wiimote and Sony PS3's superior hardware is slowly gaining ground, but where does the Xbox stand in 2008? The Xbox Elite and Premium were great successors but the next big step is yet to come. Sure enough, Microsoft isn't lazing around but is working on its next version of the Xbox, dubbed "360 Ultimate." If the rumors are to be believed, the new Xbox 360 Ultimate will boast features such as built-in WiFi, high-definition audio output, 1080p HDMI, 65nm hardware architecture, and a "near-silent" fan. It will also have a monstrous 320GB HDD to accommodate Xbox's upcoming IPTV service. But the icing on the cake will be the built-in HD-DVD drive, giving Microsoft the much needed edge in the ongoing next-gen format war.
All this and much more will be revealed come this autumn 2008.
