According to Trusted Reviews, Microsoft wants the new 60GB Premium model locked and loaded no later than July 1.

"If you've been saving up for a 20GB Xbox 360, hold off," writes reporter Gordon Kelly. "The 60GB model IS coming and you can take this exclusive to the bank."

What's more, the report corroborates the idea that Microsoft will soon launch an Xbox 360 model with Blu-ray drive now that HD DVD has swum with the fishes, not to mention ongoing negotiation between Microsoft and Sony.

With regards to the source's reliability, Trusted Reviews reminded its readers that it confirmed the impending sale of the 16GB iPhone in February before it was officially announced.
