I like my 360 over VGA which upconverts SD DVD's so HDMI is not needed in my case. The 120gb HDD would be nice but $180 is a joke. So I'm keeping it the way it is.

These same people complaining about the Zephyr are also the people who were pissed that the 360 didn't come with HDMI or an HD-DVD drive to begin with.

First of all don't trade in your Xbox.  You will almost certainly regret doing that.  At one point 3 years ago, I had all three systems.  Then my son was born and I didn't figure that I would have time to play all three, so I sold the GC and the ps2.  At that time most of the games that interested me were on Xbox.  Now 3 years later I realized that most of the games that I wanted to play now were on ps2.  So I went out and bought another one.  I also realized that there were far more games for my son to play on ps2 as well.  I already have 4 games for it, and I'll be getting more this week.  I tell you this long story because you might want to play something on the Xbox 6 months from now and if you trade it in for the $75 that they probably give you for it will not be worth missing a game for. 

Second, I do recommend getting a ps2.  I would not wait for the ps3 as I think the price and the almost inevitable delay of its release will make buying a ps2 now well worth it.  Even if the ps3 makes its scheduled launch (whenever that is) it will most likely be plagued by bugs and failures just like the 360.  Don't take this as a dig on the ps3 either.  I will be getting one as soon as I feel the need to blow $400 on a new machine.  It's just that I'll wait out the first few months before jumping on board.
