A new report claims Microsoft is currently targeting to launch its new Xbox 360 update on November 25.
The update will bring a new look to the 360’s Dashboard and will add a number of new apps and features, which will be running on a modified version of Microsoft’s Silverlight development framework codenamed Lakeview, according to a source of GigaOM.
A number of new services will be added with the update including HBO Go, Comcast and Syfy for the US, and BBC, Channel 4, Channel 5 and LOVEFiLM in the UK – full list here. A video claimed to show the new Dashboard was also leaked last week, showing the inclusion of Bing and YouTube.

There's a Black Friday site that posts not only the store ads but also deals before, during and after Black Friday. If the Xbox update comes out it will be posted on http://www.BlackFridayAds2011.info
