Microsoft & Apple Announce xPad 360 Tablet


Apple and Microsoft put aside their petty differences, and announced a new handheld gaming platform, combining the best of the iPad and Xbox 360 systems. The xPad 360 tablet will build on the core hardware of the iPad 2, but with an enhanced processor and graphics capabilities.

The new xPad 360 tablet will be able to run all existing Xbox 360 games, plus games downloaded from the iTunes store. You’ll also be able to use Microsoft Points to purchase games from the iTunes store, however, due to Apple’s 70/30 revenue split, they’re only worth 70 cents on the dollar. (So 800 Microsoft Points will buy you $7.00 worth of games from the App Store).  And of course, there will be support for Xbox Live and the Xbox Live Marketplace.
