There's great news coming your way from the folks that made the Xbox Homebrew Mod and the X360 USB kit! Team Xecuter has been working on a way to flash your drives without ever opening your 360 again, and they've finally given it a name and a release date! The Blaster 360 is a stylish yet functional addition to your homebrew arsenal, allowing you to flash the firmware without opening the console.

As Team Xecuter mentions,

No soldering, no cutting of the case - just plug 'n' go. You only ever have to open up your case once. We don't need to tell you how many different firmwares have been released in the last few months and who knows how many more? No longer will you have to have your Xbox in pieces all the time, no longer will you have to take the Xbox apart every time you need to update new features and functions or essential bug fixes.


The Blaster 360 also works with your 360 USB, so if you've bought some of their previous goodies, they won't become obsolete. In any case, here are the list of features. Expect resellers to have it out around the end of October, and we'll keep you updated on the latest happenings with this new product of theirs as we get them.

Features:
  • Once installed, never open up the case again to update firmware.
  • No soldering, no cutting, no problem!
  • 5 minute install.
  • Xbox Mode & PC Mode Switch.
  • Modeb Enabled for Hitachi.
  • Molex Power connector (no lugging around the 360 PSU).
  • Superior quality design.
  • Ergonomically matched to the 360 case.
  • LED Glow feature.
  • LED Glow Off / Led Perm On / LED Off switch.
