Chances of getting a Jasper (arcade) 360 online?

[tom-nook]

Anybody bought an arcade online recently and received a Jasper unit?

If you did where from?

Cheers!

amazon.co.uk apparently are shipping them, based on the little forum thing at the bottom of the product page

Cool - thanks for the heads up!

Anybody received one from GAME? Their bundles seem to be a wee bit cheaper & incl. free next day delivery.

Edit: not noticed the forum on Amazon before - must be new (or I'm just blind). Good idea.

IIRC all the Arcade machines are Jaspers now as they need the extra on-board flash RAM for the new dashboard.

We got ours from Shopto.net. I think all Arcade stock these days is the newer Jasper model with the inbuilt 256 memory card.

Thanks chaps - that's good news!

I thought you could run the new dash off a memory card so was assuming pre-Jasper stock would still be floating about. Sounds like I can shop around for the best deal then.

Decided I wanted an hdd & headset so risked buying a pro at lunchtime.

Wasn't sure if MS had started rolling out Jasper Pro's yet but fortunately it is

Will it prevent my 360 from certain impending death.....who knows?!
