    Do these come with a transfer cable? I noticed it has a few other things bundled in but no mention of the transfer cable (or is this just the network cable?).

    And is the headset the same as the crappy one you get with the xbox?

    Nope, the transfer cable only comes with the 120G drive.

    So is there any way to transfer from the 20gig to the 60gig?

    Yep. Pick up a 256 memory card. Copy your game saves to that. Then transfer them onto the new 60GB HD. You'll need to recover your gamertag from xbox live then download any arcade games you already owned. You don't get charged twice as they're linked to your gamertag.

    P.S. If you struggle to get a memorycard you can borrow mine. I'll post it to ya.

    I don't think you can copy files from a usb stick to the 360.

    Microsoft, in their infinite wisdom, made USB storage devices read only on the 360. Pretty shoddy that they don't supply the transfer cable with the 60GB drive too.
