Tech site Fudzilla reports that the next generation Xbox should be around by 2012, which according to them leads to the possibility that the GPU will be a 28nm part. The new GPU will also reportedly support backwards compatibility.
The site also suggests that the new console was supposedly scheduled for a 2010 release but was pushed back due to the recession.
