    Does anyone have one of these? I'm trying to collect some information, and this is one of only 3 xboxes that i don't own (I don't have a launch Bill Gates or a panzer box either). I'm trying to figure out how many of these there actually were. The number i've heard thrown around is 500, but i'd bet dollars to doughnuts that is way off. I'd almost guarantee that there are less of these then the Gates Launch boxes, as this is the only xbox i've never seen in person.

    What i've gathered so far: This was basicly a bribe from Microsoft to get EA to port their online titles over to Live!. There were two matching white controllers, both had the same EA Live jewl as the box itself. I don't know if it had the standard av cables, or the component. I don't believe that it had the dvd kit, and i'm not sure if it came with any games, but i'd imagine not.

    If no one around here has one, then they must be pretty damn limited. I'll add the information i've found so far.

    Suposedly Major Nelson had a post on his blog about them a while back, but i can't find it now.

    There really isn't much, if any, information out there on these boxes. The only thing i've found is on a german website that took about a year and a half to load:

    Any information would be welcomed.

    The only one I've seen was on Xbox-Scene, and I think one of the members owned one, but I definitely could be wrong on this.

    Ok, the next person who mods a limited edition EA Live! or Bill Gates Launch xbox is going to be hunted down and shot. I've seen moded panzer boxes before, and that's enough to get me pissed off, but to mod one of these is punishable by death. The only LE xbox i could care less about is the US Halo box, as they seem to be worth less the standard black boxes.

    Tell me about it... i've got 4 of 'em. I still think they're about a thousand times cooler than the regular black xboxes (of which i own none).
