On November 22, Microsoft Xbox 360 host's North American listing, 200 fanatic game fans lost their cold winds, raining came to the gate of the game store in Manhattan. The odds of Xbox 360 really got a "miracle". Due to the market, the major retail in the United States will be sold out on the 22nd day. Players in the team in the team have not been able to get the luxury version of Xbox 360, and they express them very regretted. A part of the buyer who is smoked is more than the middle of the night, and I will sell it to eBay. Additional game sets of more than 660 dollars in Xbox 360 actually shout price of $ 2,500. The Amazon website said that from the morning of the 22nd to the Pacific time, there were 1800 Xbox 360 to be transferred online. Software giants said that the Xbox 360 landed in the European market and the Japanese market is December 2 and December 10. The grand box has not yet been sold yet, only one series is now playing research in Yiwu, the price of the sample sales is 6850 yuan. The official price is slightly higher than the official price of Xbox 360, but it is much lower than the black market. However, Shanda said that there will be a different price of different prices for consumers. The day before selling is scheduled to be in the new year, but it doesn't know which day. A column authors written by: "I have already connected Xbox 360: I can't connect the cable TV plug on it; I can't use it as a Wi-Fi base station, providing wireless network services for laptops. Why My living room is needed to be 3 instead of 1 machine, Cisco, Coruster may meet my requirements, Microsoft may produce XBOX attachments to provide these features. "The grand box can do what to say above: "According to reports, the current grand" box "can simultaneously turn on the cable TV cable and telecom broadband, which can only be online, or the function of IPTV (Network TV). In Chen Tianqiao, the TV in the living room After the "box", you can play cards, browse Sina News, play 12 online games that grandly operate - as long as it can play on the network, it can make TV. "(Description: Wi-Fi base station problem, grand The box can be implemented by a USB external wireless AP. Maybe possible?) The biggest change in Xbox 360 is that the flag on the processor is not "Intel" or "IBM", but "Microsoft". Microsoft license IBM's PowerPC design and found a second processor supplier in Singapore. Don't underestimate this change, this indicates that the Xbox 360 will be completely Microsoft, which never possess "Intel Inside" label. The grand box, the CPU should be Intel (from the report of Shanda and Intel cooperation, there is currently no third party to evaluate the grand box.). As with Xbox 360, it can be used for online surfing, watching cable TV programs or playing songs you like. Currently, the implementation of these functions Xbox 360 needs to use the Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005 PC (Software System). Grand EZ Center is based on WIN XP Pro or Home. Microsoft's terrible is that it provides assistance to the top, and on the other hand, I also have an Xbox 360. The grand demistence point lies in reserves the content that adapts to Chinese customers, which makes China's general public to adapt, recognize. The "box" software package Ezpod is on sale, and it should be a strategy of the grand content. For users currently most active, most areas, buy such products, should be customer contacts that have been exposed to Xbox, PS. Their ideas are not easy to change, and they have never believed that foreign products are better, and the foreign games are better. This is a challenge for the grand next promotion. At present, there are all local sales contacts, and there is a telephone order hotline. On the day of the Grand Box, I don't know if I will have a row, I can't buy it, some people will sell such a hot landscape.
Microsoft has said that 3 million Xbox 360 will be sold within 3 months. Shanda has not disclosed the first sales plan. Just an estimated crowd: the first phase of the "box" target population is 2.5% high-income family. If you calculate this, you may also supply 3 million boxes in the first phase of Shanda. By launching Xbox, Microsoft may destroy its core business ━━Tel PC, which is used in a platform that is completely built by Microsoft to block Intel and Dell. Shanda may get more support from Intel because Microsoft abandoned Intel. For many years, many families in China have been considering that there is no need for a PC at home. This can be mapped from "DVD, TV far than PC in home". PC is more in work, learning needs into the family. The concept and price are finally determined to determine the success or failure of the grand box. Xbox wants to enter a large-scale Chinese family and the same conditions. In fact, it is a trend using a computer as a home entertainment terminal because the computer is the only hardware product capable of achieving trinome. Intel About PC Home Appliances has a set of theories, and their concept is entirely from the perspective of hardware technology. Microsoft is an occupation of the market from the perspective of basic software (slowly penetrating free hardware). Shanda starts with cooperation, standing on Microsoft and Intel's shoulders (but there is no key technology), relying on the understanding of Chinese users and adapts to the content of Chinese users. The grand ultimate idea is that no matter who's box enters the family, you all use grand contents. source:

The long-bumpy "box" of the growth is still necessary to have three points on November 11th. After leaving Chaohua Technology, I will have a long-awaited Qianqiu, representing Changhong Chaohua, the industry is looking forward to the new product - Changhong " "The living room entertainment center is also a commonly known as" box ". Previously, the grand broadband entertainment platform, Hisense's Wisdom Media Entertainment Center, TCL M-Box has been unveiled. Maybe Shanda Chairman Chen Tianqiao will not think that his box plan has also been shocked, but it is a four-month battle. However, the market's lively does not mean that the popularity of "box" has been water to the prices, the higher price, the problem of poor, and the difficulty of market promotion is undoubtedly the three "boxes". From the current release of the "box" function, it is basically similar to the computer. Changhong "Numba" uses Microsoft Windows MCE operating systems and AMD chips, sets of computers, home theivers, TV, DVD, game consoles and online entertainment, etc., and can connect family digital appliances. The grand "box" includes medium-high-end processors, large-capacity hard drives, DVD-RW drives, and a remote control; while in content, Grand Box may bundle Sina's content information, Baidu search, eBay, Taobao and Dangdang E-commerce, New Oriental Online Education, Securities Star Financial Services and other major applications. Hisense's box appearance is similar to the disc player, which also has functions such as network browsing, watching TV, playing games and stocks. From this perspective, "box" should be comparable to the price of the computer. It is understood that the market price of Hisense Zhijia Media Entertainment Center is as high as 9,000 yuan; Changhong "number" price is currently divided into three grades, high close to 9,000 yuan, low approximately 5,000 yuan; grand first "box" pricing It will also be close to 7,000 yuan. In this way, this obviously exceeds the price of a mainstream brand PC. Moreover, one of the original intentions of the "box" is to solve those people who have a fear of fear of using computer. In this population, the elderly are undoubtedly important forces, and nearly 10,000 yuan is obviously exceeding this part. User's psychological price. In addition, the "box" also needs to have a digital TV as an output terminal to match, and digital TV has just risen, and the ownership rate in the family is still very low. If the expenditure of digital TV is still, this price is indeed. Most families. Unbearable. Since the price of the "box" is in a clear disadvantage compared to the computer, then if you want the user to discard the PC and buy a "box", or add a "box" outside the PC, you must have exceeded the content of "box". The PC is too late. However, from the current situation, the content of "box" is quite poor than massive computer network information. At the press conference of Changhong "Numbers", more people see is the introduction of excellent operability of Microsoft operating systems and the functions such as video, MP3 playback, etc., the speaker is also special. Taking "rotating photos" as a function of showing off, "Number" can bring any unique content and applications, which are relatively involved. People feel that "box" is just as a "TV version of PC", but it is simplified, and the operation interface has made so-called optimization. So, what reasons can persuade consumers to move their "PC" to TV in accordance with the manufacturer's meaning? Modern consumers who are accustomed to the PC operation, what reasons have changed their online and entertainment? So far, we have only seen the Shanda in the "box" content, which has spent $ 450 million to acquire various content providers, and 48 partnership agreements have been signed in various fields. However, this content is still unable to feel unique compared to computer network information. Perhaps the "box" plus "large screen digital TV" mode, there is a significant advantage over the computer in film and television entertainment, but my country's current film and television content is still under the control of the Radio, Fa, the TV's control, IT manufacturers are still very It is difficult to make a difference in this field of film and television entertainment.
