XBOX 360 Dashboard Updates
via xbox.com

The update for NXE (New XBOX Experience) is being rolled out to all users throughout today.  Continue on to the XBOX website for a list of all the updates.

A few key things to note, as seen on Larry Hyrb's (aka. 'Major Nelson') Blog:

  • While you can browse and purchase Avatar items and full Xbox 360 games in the console with this update, the ability to add these items your Xbox 360 download queue from Xbox.com will be available this Thursday.
  • Xbox LIVE integration with Twitter, Facebook and Last.FM will be available later this year.
  • Zune Video Marketplace will also ship later this fall when it will replace the current Video Marketplace.

If the update is not coming to you "Try testing you Xbox LIVE connection ... prompted the update." (seen on @superkaylo twitterstream: the UK Inside XBOX producer)

It's a shame some of the services and features I was most looking forward to seeing (maybe not using) won't be rolled out till the Autumn. Would have liked to tried out their integration with Twitter and Last.fm.

Anyway, I'll be checking it out when I get home (if I have time). Enjoy.
