The Elite no longer looks the best bet of the 360 range. The original reasons for buying it were hopefully to get the new cooler chipset, the larger hard drive and the HDMI connection missing on the earlier 360's.
But now the Pro spec has starting shipping with HDMI connection and the new chipsets (the elite isn't guaranteed to have the falcon chipset by the way, it may still be the old one), so the only difference for the £50 extra is the hard disk. Unless you are planning to download TV and films through Live then the extra space is pretty wasted.
You can also get deals on the pro with two games and an extra wireless controller for less than the £300 elite.
