The cable and transfer kit comes with every hard drive. MS doesn't sell just the kit, but it can be found on ebay if that's all you need.

Aaaah, I see. Thanks. Thought I read you had to get it separately.

I'm thinking about just getting an Elite now, bigger HD, a couple games, and a $50 Walmart GC ($299 before GC). Will this come with the transfer cable and kit in the box?

EDIT: Nevermind, I see it doesn't come with them. I was originally going to get the 60gb Live starter pack, and that apparently doesn't include them either...just standalone hard drives, like you said.

So anybody have one laying around? :)

if you call, MS, they will try to sell you one for $12, which is hilarious because they used to give em out for free.

They used to sell them for 40-60$ on Ebay.

I have one i bought and would be happy to resell at some point for obviously cheaper than those prices.

So did anyone get free points in the mail today? I got a Microsoft branded mailer and inside is some scratcher thing with 480 free points. Cool!

From what it appears on CAG, people that are getting the mailer are those that don't usually spend a bunch on the Marketplace or have let their Live lapse back to Silver status.

I'd love some, but MS knows they don't need to encourage me to make purchases. :lol:

Really? I hope I got one because I think I've only bought like 3 things on LIVE over my 5 or 6 years.

That sucks. I'm sure I've spent over $1000 on Marketplace stuff (mostly Rock Band), so I guess they don't need to give me a kickback either.
