Xbox 360 Update Released, Does Nothing
by Chris Faylor, Aug 06, 2008 7:38am PDTMicrosoft today released a new system update for the Xbox 360, which users will be prompted to download when they attempt to connect to Xbox Live.
This update packs no new features, but is said to contain code to "prepare for the future growth of the service." A major system update, dubbed the New Xbox Experience, is planned for this fall, sporting a new 3D dashboard and the ability to install games.
"There are no other changes or enhancements in this update...in other words no new features," Xbox Live director Larry 'Major Nelson' Hyrb explained on his official blog.

Not really a user-visible feature as it's to stop things getting worse in the future, not to make them better now.
Or they're just releasing updates, with all the associated testing effort and risk of unexpected problems, for the hell of it. That seems unlikely.
(Or it's for something they don't wanna talk about, like DRM.)
