Good. It means I can get one a month or two earlier than I estimated.

Hmm. If I didn't have a Wedding, and a Fence to build around the house, I would so buy one...

Oh yeah, that's still just a rumor. Although it makes sense in light of none of the other 360 price points being dropped.
Pity that it wasn't a drop across the board. I could be really tempted to go get an Elite if it were cheaper.

While it's not an across-the-board clearance/price drop, Amazon just put the Elite on sale for $400.

Haven't seen any price drop in Canada yet. I wonder if they're waiting to sell out of what they have? Arg!

So realistically speaking, is the 20GB worth it? For those who have older ones (that still work and all), are you anywhere near filling that up? I know bigger is better in general but it is a good price if 20GB would suffice for awhile.

I got a 20GB in November. With Rock Band DLC being as good as it is, and more to come... I definitely wish I had more space. I wouldn't mind being able to keep a bunch of game demos on there, for instance.

My 20GB has been full for at least a year with HD TV episodes.

Check the bestbuy.ca site.
Apparently there's a version (the arcade version, I believe) that's for 279.99 Canadian. Though it may be an online exclusive only.
Behold! Besy Buy!
Unfortunately, I already have a 360, but my friends are all contemplating and people to play online with is always a good thing.
Also, in regards to the 20GB size question, if you aren't storing other media on it, or at least, not a lot of it, you should be golden. I've got a few demos, a couple CDs and over 10 games worth of save files on my 20GB and I haven't even used half of the space. (But then agian, I don't go for much of the DLC, so if you think you will, it may be worth it to go to the next size.)

Price only to last as long as the 20gbs last before being replaced by a new standard 60 GB.

Yup. Pity, the system could have used an across the board drop.
