Confirmed: 360 US Elite dropped to $299.99
Microsoft’s confirmed the Stateside leg of its 360 price cut, saying the American Elite will drop to $299.99.
The 60Gb Pro has been cut to $249.99, although production on the pack, which has been fully discontinued in Europe, has now ceased.
The American Arcade unit remains at $200, which its price has risen in Europe to £159.99 from £129.99.
It looks as though the HDMI cable has been dropped from both the European and American Elite packs.
Get all details on the European cut here.

I cared for a second, then I read

I don’t think a HDMI lead needs to be included. It’s not like you then have to spend £25 on an official lead you can’t find for love nor money. It’s a standard connection, you may well already have one. You can pick one up for < £5 and it leaves you free to buy one which suits your needs.

When I needed an extra HDMI cable, for my surround sound system, I bought a PS3 one from GAME for about £5.

Frankly needs to be a bit cheaper than that now.
