Snippet:

The 512MB Memory Unit, available worldwide beginning April 3, 2007, will retail for an estimated retail price of $49.99 (U.S.) in North America.* The 512MB Memory Unit will be pre-loaded with the hit Xbox LIVE Arcade game “Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved” from developer Bizarre Creations Ltd. for a limited time. The original 64MB Memory Unit will simultaneously drop in price from $39.99 to $29.99 (ERP).

Not bad. I don't even use my 64MB MU, though, so I doubt I'll get this.

yeah, I've been amazed at how much my 64MB dealio holds... But that's cool that they are actually bucking up and giving more storage options.

Kewl! I've been wanting to pick one up for game saves and taking my profile to other Xboxes. I'll definitely pick this up when it's released.

The MU has been great for me! I have an upstairs and a downstairs 360 and for some reason (why MS, why) I can't have my gamertag loaded on both HDs. So I have my gamertag/profile and all saved games on the MU. I also like being able to take the saved games between the two 360's. I have 11mb left on the 64mb MU, so I'll be growing into this bigger one pretty soon.

I have the 64mb MU. I use it to save gamertag info and game saves. I figure it's a nice to way not to loose info in case of a HDD crash and it's easier to bring the info with me.

I've done the recover gamertag thing at a buddy's house a few times, and it's kind of annoying having to enter all email and password crap, and then have a several minutes for it to download. Then have to do it all over again when I get home to play at home.

I've had the 64MB MU for a long while now. I used it to transfer saves and whatnot from hard drive to hard drive. It's handy to have whenever I go to a friend's house to play!
