I most certainly hope that the AC adapter is not this big.

"We weren't able to verify this at the Xbox 360 Press Event last week (cords & plugs were neatly concealed for aesthetic purposes), but rumors continue to pile up that the Xbox 360's power adapter is, well, what you see above. Of course, most (if not all) of the Xbox 360s that are out in the wild (and show up in these photos), are actually dev kits and don't reflect what the consumer is going to unwrap out of the retail box. We do know that Microsoft has cut down on the console's weight problem by externalizing the A/C adapter, but dag, you could so some serious damage with that thing!"

That is pretty big, but it's not like the 360 is portable, so I don't really care how big the adapter is.

Having attended last week's UK play test of the Xbox 360 I can confirm that is the power supply for the Xbox 360 – the reason why it is so large, is because it is an ‘external’ power supply, rather than a bulky in-built power supply.

I highly highly doubt it will end up being that large.
