The Xbox 360 Premiums with HDMI plugs and (Zeus-willing) reliable 65 nanometer chips are out frolicking in the wild.

A Shacknews forum member reported buying a Premium with an HDMI outlet, and posted the photos to prove it.

Looks like the manufacture date was July 4 of this year. Independence from the Red Ring of Death!

Microsoft is remaining mum, so far, but if I were the Xbox guys, I'd be shouting this news from the digital rooftops.

I think a lot of gamers are sitting on the fence until the HDMI/65 nm systems are on the market, and the arrival of these upgraded systems could finally mean the end of the RROD saga.

But what do I know?

VICTOR: The owner probably just didn't want all the other nerds who did get RRoD'd to track his serial number, hunt him down and steal his unit.
