New Xbox 360 Dashboard In The Works?
Online CV suggests new update to console's recently launched NXE.
It’s only been a few months since the launch of the NXE, but Microsoft could be working on another graphical update to the Xbox 360 dashboard.
That’s according to a LinkedIn CV discovered by SuperAnnuation, where a UI designer for Microsoft has apparently been working as an “Animator for the XBOX 360 dasboard [sic]” since November 2009.
Of course, it could also just mean that the guy has been working on the current GUI...
Of course, the job description could mean anything from working on a whole new interface to simple tweaks in the current dashboard’s graphical design. Either way Microsoft has stated in the past that, rather than force ahead with new console iterations, it hopes to sustain life in the current generation with software updates instead. This spot would only solidify that statement.

That's about the most feeble, tenuous link to a news story possible.

If you say so.
It is a rumour though, as we say. So don't shoot the messenger. ;)

Am i he only person that remembers Natal is coming out and a new dashboard would be required to work along that? i doubt any new dashboard is planned other than adding to the current.
