Over the past year rumours of an Xbox handheld, in a similar fashion to Sony's PSP, have popped up in various forms, with tenuous links and alleged false rumours. One of the latest rumours has emerged in a significantly more reliable source, that source being Dean Takahashi.
Takahashi claims that around fifty per-cent of the Xbox 360 hardware team is hard at work on the new machine, which he states is to be released half way through the Xbox 360's lifespan.

If we estimate a mainstream console's lifespan is around four/five years, this would put the release date of this portable at somewhere at the end of 2007/beginning of 2008. It is possible developer's will have already been briefed on the product and possibly handed early-release specs, documentation and SDK's.
It will be interesting If this rumor becomes true, and how it might tie into Origami.
