Several pictures of the upcoming Xbox 360 console (or at least it's named Xbox 360 on the picture) have surfaced on the net. While pictures have surfaced in the past, the one seen now could be the one that will be shown at E3.
The device that will eventually hit the stores will most likely not be like the one shown here. Many remember the rather cool-looking X-shaped Xbox prototypes displayed by Microsoft after the first generation Xbox was announced.
The picture shows the disc tray, two memory ports, a power button and a possibly covered extension port. In addition there seems to be an IR port and maybe a button to trigger a wireless connection. Since no connectors are visible for the connectors, it's likely that the Xbox 360 will feature wireless controllers -- as has been suspected by many.
This, probably somewhat older, picture shows the left hand side of the console at an angle. You can see that the color is a bit different, and the eject button is facing a different direction. The bulge you see on the first picture seems to be a HDD expansion slot (note the "40GB" marking).
This picture, which surfaced before the ones shown above, looks a bit different from the others. Either this is a newer design of the HDD expansion or the slot is covered by a "default plate" which is used when no expansion device is installed.
In my opinion the device looks quite nice already!

its pointing to the left
here is the angled one zoomed in:
it is pointing up
there, found that on gizmodo. heres what it says:
Maybe this image is new, maybe it isn’t—I’ve been somewhat out of the loop the last couple of days. Nonetheless, I hadn’t seen it. Don’t lust after it too much, however, since it looks like it’s already dating someone.
Wouldn’t it be a good idea if the wireless controllers could be recharged just by putting them in depression on the top? Let’s make that happen, Microsoft.
Also, this originally was standing up, like the letter I.
Update: I’m not saying this is a leaked image or anything, btw. It obviously lines up with the Our Colony shots, but not entirely. It could be a photoshop from Microsoft or anyone else. UPDATE 2 - Aaron says “That image is three different images made into one. The top is an old concept that someone did and the front is a render. The side is an actual picture. The only two that are reputable are the front and side. Top is fake.” UPDATE 3 - This one has been traced back to a goon named Faid. Wonder if he has stairs in his house?
not sure if its real, it sure is ugly. is it going to use hd-dvd or not? when is it going to be on mtv again?
it is a memory card, which looks like it has a 64mb capacity. but if it like the original xbox memory card, it will be useless. it also means the memory card wont be inserted in the controller
Here’s the first full picture of the Xbox 360. It looks nice, I think, despite all the hate I’ve read. My guess it’ll look much nicer in its normal configuration, layed flat. The controller, on the other hand, looks awful.
Along with the console it looks like they’re showing off the controller, the Xbox Live headset, and an external camera.
microsoft sure knows how to make huge gaming systems.
the only thing i like is the wirelsss controllers
and here are the possible skins you can get for the 360:
