Future of Xbox set-top box uncertain, report claims
It has previously been reported that Microsoft is developing a low-cost alternative to its next-gen Xbox designed to provide streamed access to core entertainment services.
It has been claimed that the device would run on the core components of Windows 8 and support casual games rather than full Xbox ones. WSJ sources said recent prototypes integrated Kinect functionality.
The site also claims that the next-generation Xbox, which is set to be revealed on May 21, will be released in time for the holiday season in time to go head-to-head with PS4.

Origamo I think people will probably just by an Xbox instead, so it sounds like a pointless idea.
Not unless its $400
