While everyone is watching the Playstation 3 we have noticed that XboX 2 development is proceeding apace. Microsoft promised to send out XboX 2 developer's kit sometime in Q1 next year. This kit will finally have an R500 card inside which means that R500 development is quite advanced. Microsoft's current kit is powered with older Radeon 9800 cards and things will get much faster this time round. Developers have to code on Shader Model 3.0 hardware.
