The New York Yankees are up 3-1 over the Philadelphia Phillies in the World Series, with Game 5 on Monday night. But this news has not reached the Macy’s marketing department, which is congratulating the Phillies for a hard-fought series victory in the full-page ads running in Philly today. Oops.

So, what’s the Halloween costume that all the well-dressed geeks will be wearing this time around? While many of the common folk will be drawn to tasteless dead-celebrity costumes, at least a couple of techies will be going as iPhones—functional ones that they like to call GuyPhones. In this video, two rabid fans, Reko Rivera and John Savio, parade their iPhone getups, which have actual working 42-inch displays. Alas, this costume is not for everyone. It weighs 85 pounds, for one thing, and has a battery life of only 1.5 hours. The two sank more than $2,000 and two years of work into this, so can’t you give them 30 seconds of your time?
I am happy to announce that we’re doing an Xbox LIVE Update Preview program for upcoming features such as Zune, Facebook and Twitter. Much like we have done in the past, you’ll need to visit the Microsoft Connect site from this link and sign in with your Windows LIVE ID that is connected to your Xbox LIVE Gamertag.
Once you do that, you need to fill out the “Xbox LIVE Update Preview Sign Up” survey in order to be considered for receiving the Preview System Update. We’re asking a few questions about where you live, your home network, ISP connection and a few other pieces of information. We are looking for a good cross-section of our members in order to get the best feedback we can.
The Xbox team will then review all of the applications and if you’re selected we’ll send you an email notifying you of your acceptance in the program. A couple of points before you head off to register:
* We’re looking for multiple thousands of participants, so your chances of making it in are good
* This opportunity is open to all Xbox LIVE Members in regions where Xbox LIVE is available
* Just completing the survey does not automatically get you access to the Preview Program. We’ll be making final selections from the completed surveys and send you an email if you are selected.
* While both Xbox LIVE Gold and Silver members can sign up, Priority will be given to Gold members in the selection process.
For additional details and specific requirements, head to Xbox.com.
If you are accepted, you’ll hear from us in about a week. Make sure your information on Connect is updated with a current email address so we can email you if you are accepted.
Beginning today and running through October 5th, when you purchase an Xbox 360 Elite for $299, we’ll kick back fifty-bucks your way in the form of a rebate. Cash money. This is for US purchases only, and you should visit Xbox.com/eliterebate (when it is live later today) for details and rebate requirements.
Microsoft Corp. and Activision Publishing, Inc. today brandished the latest weapon to help gamers take to the battlefields for the global launch of the year with the announcement of the Xbox 360 Modern Warfare 2 Limited Edition Console. Infinity Ward’s Modern Warfare 2, the blockbuster sequel to the best selling first-person action game in history, Call of Duty® 4: Modern Warfare®, was the inspiration for the console’s high-speed, low-drag, battle-ready design, which is available for pre-order today at retailers, and in other regions later this week.
The limited-edition console releases with the game November 10.
Beginning with the game’s worldwide release on November 10, fans can arm themselves with the Xbox 360 Modern Warfare 2 Limited Edition Console, featuring an exclusive design inspired by the epic thriller, more storage space than ever before in a 250GB Hard Drive, two Xbox 360 Wireless Controllers, as well as an Xbox 360 Headset and a Standard Edition copy of Modern Warfare 2 for an estimated retail price of $399 (USD).
What’s inside the box.
“It’s the highest compliment to the team and our fans to have a special themed Xbox 360 console,” said Vince Zampella, CEO of Infinity Ward. “The precision and detail that’s been put into the console captures the intensity and feel of Modern Warfare 2. We can’t wait for our community and fans around the world to see for themselves on November 10.”

The Limited Edition Console was revealed at an exclusive preview event in Los Angeles where guests were the first to experience the game’s multiplayer gameplay on Xbox LIVE. “It is thrilling to bring the exclusive Modern Warfare 2-inspired Xbox 360 console to Call of Duty fans. Being able to work so closely with the talented team at Infinity Ward on the design has enabled us to develop a console that will set bragging rights around the world,” said Albert Penello, senior director of global marketing for Xbox 360. “These fans deserve the biggest Xbox 360 console ever, and we’re delivering with more storage space than ever before and freedom to enjoy all their favorite games and downloadable Game Add-ons, including the first two Modern Warfare 2 maps that will be available first on Xbox LIVE.” The add-ons will be sold separately.
The Xbox 360 Modern Warfare 2 Limited Edition Console will be sold in Europe, the Middle East (UAE, Saudi Arabia), UK, US, Canada, Mexico, Colombia, Chile, Australia, and New Zealand. On November 10, Activision Publishing, Inc. will release Infinity Ward’s Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. The title continues the gripping and heart-racing action as players face off against a new threat dedicated to bringing the world to the brink of collapse. Modern Warfare 2 is rated “M” (Mature – Blood, Drug Reference, Intense Violence and Language) by the ESRB.
