GameTab leaked information on what "could" be the new dashboard for the 360, how reliable this is, is another matter but still worth a look.
Video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nwd00FGpKrU)
Features
* 600 Windows Live Messenger contacts for your friends list
* Contact list will integrate Windows Live Messenger and show joinable session status
* Messenger contacts see what game you're playing and gamertag
* Marketplace has own blade, skin will change independent from theme
* Users will now see what achievement they've unlocked onscreen
* Low-power download mode followed by auto-shutdown
* You can watch partially downloaded video files

I have the majority of people I work with on my MSN account. Do I really want my boss to be able to see that I'm sitting playing GRAW when I've chucked a sickie?

Handy MS have the keyboard controller coming out if not the MSN feature might not of been so useful unless u like to either have 2 keyboards kicking round your desk or you like to keep plugging and un-unplugging the dam thing in and out.

Yeah group chat couldn't be too hard? i'm sick of being told to buy UNO to do grouped video chat, it's a card game and it's no longer free...

Why no chat rooms... We used to have it. PC-ing 4 people to get a game going is a nightmare.

I'm gutted they have expanded the Friends List yet provided no feature to group them, imagine the amount of people you will have to search through. It's retarded in my view...>Could of done it so much better.
Plus providing Video Chat across Xbox Live would of boasted support for the Xbox Live Vision Camera, easily!
