Xbox Live Update Coming Soon

We all know about the upcoming Xbox Live Update, and we are all excited about it. So many new features (and updated features) are coming, such as FaceBook, Twitter, Zune.

Most of us can not wait for this update to come out, but you may not have to! Xbox is offering a few thousand people the opportunity to preview the upcoming Xbox live update. Why pass this opportunity up?

A couple of points before you head off to register:

- We're looking for several thousand 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.
