It looks like starting early next year XBox 360's will get cpu's that produce less heat and take less power. The most important thing though: It will be cheaper for microsoft to make with the new cpu (and oh yeah it might go faster).
The improved Xbox 360 CPU will be manufactured using 65 nanometre technology starting in the first quarter of 2007, Chartered Semiconductor of Singapore said. The existing CPU uses 90nm technology.

Although the launch of the Xbox 360 last November was generally hailed as a success for Microsoft, the console has been troubled by reports of overheating causing games to crash or freeze.
