I seen this article over at Kotaku. It shows a list of the new features coming to the dashboard. It also talks about it starting on Monday for some people It would be awesome if I could check it out. I got picked early for the NXE so I guess we will wait and see. For full details, check out the link.

EDIT: Why haven't they added a web browser to the 360 yet? Everything else has it, even the DS.
Xbox Live Update: Games On Demand, Netflix Movie Party & More
Was the NXE Beta done by random selection?
" Was the NXE Beta done by random selection?Yeah. I had to sign up for this Microsoft testing thing so I could get in.If so, I think this will be different. I think I remember hearing that the "select members of the community" meant those involved in online customer interaction and such, and not random members of the community. I'm not sure how the NXE beta worked though, I just got it as a member of the press. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, haven't been paying too much attention to this."
Kinda curious what the 1080p Streaming is for? How si it any different then me Buyinga TV show episode like I do now?
Dood, that's some crazy updates!!! The Netflix Party thing is something I'll DEFINITELY get in on with some friends! = D
I'll bet Last.fm will be launched from an entry point on the dashboard just like netflix. This probably means we can't listen to it while playing a game. Looking forward to full game downloads. Watch the next GTA come on two discs now: one install, one play like back in the day.
Why haven't they added a web browser to the 360 yet? Everything else has it, even the DS. "This looks like a really awesome update!!! Web Browser would be kewl though... it's like the one thing PS3 can wave over their heads, unfortunately.
Lastly, this is like the only fucking Topic worth reading right now on the Giant Bomb Forums, gawd damn-it (half the stuff is Off-Topic non-gaming shit)... at least this is a gewd Post! Thanks JJOR64 :)
