UK retailer discontinues Xbox 360 60GB model The UK retailer Argos has announced it has discontinued sales of the 60GB model of the Xbox 360, adding more fuel to the rumor that the model is being phased out and that the 120GB Elite model will be coming down in price to fill the price point at $299 USD or GBP 169.
"We are very sorry but Microsoft have discontinued this line," says the retailer's site.

Earlier this week, a leaked Meijer catalog revealed that in the United States at least, the Elite was coming down in price on August 30th.

The much anticipated price cut should occur at the same time as Sony's long rumored PlayStation 3 price cut and possible release of a Slim PS3.

If this comes down to £169, from £229+, that's a fantastic price drop. I wonder if they sell off all the 60Gb models cheaper?
