I know of the Xbox 360 Arcade, the Premium and the Elite - is that all of them!?

And what exactly warrants three different configurations? What does each one do/get with it? I'm thinking of getting one - a few game shave sold me now. I'm just greedy I guess - got a PS3, will get a Wii when I have the cash, but there have been several 360 games now that have made me think 'Oh cool!' so I simply must have one.

My friend owns the Elite, I think the only difference is that it has more HD space but I'm not sure exactly.

Arcade: Wireless controller, 256 MB memory unit, composite AV cable, HDMI 1.2 output, and 5 Xbox Live Arcade titles included (don't know what they are)

Premium: All the features of the Xbox 360 Core (Arcade minus the games) and includes a hybrid composite and component[/URL] cable with optional optical out instead of a composite cable. The Xbox 360 also includes a detachable 20 GB Hard Disc Drive to store downloaded content, provide compatibility with original games, and store game data.

Elite: Premium stuff plus a 120GB hard drive and a black[URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black"] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Component_video) finish as well as an HDMI 1.2 cable and a controller and headset that match the system's black finish.

I'd most likely be prepared to fork out the extra cash for the Elite just because it's black and will sit nicely next to my PS3. Now if only they'd release a shiny black Wii...

Thanks for the info guys.
