Xbox 360 to get a Blu-ray drive!?!

I heard it, she heard it, he heard it, hell, we’ve all probably heard the rumors that were flying about a month ago of Microsoft possibly adopting Blu-ray technology.  Well, the rumors are not 100% confirmed yet but it has been confirmed by smarthouse citing talks with USA Microsoft Insiders that Microsoft’s blu-ray add on is already FULLY DESIGNED and could be on the market within 3 months! Subject to internal marketing and sales approval. 

With the news of their being prototypes that have been fully designed and tested, the technology is there.  How does Sony feel about this though?  They stated “We couldnt be happier that Microsoft is considering making the switch to the winning side of the HD disc battle.  We would welcome Microsoft to the blu-ray stable.” That from the mouth of SCE Managing Director Michael Ephraim.

Those are the facts of what has been stated, so its very close to happening.  Rumor has it that it would also take on a built in blu-ray drive for future productions of Xbox 360’s.
