A few more bits of Xbox One in the news:

- Launch date: November 22
- Reputations built on the 360 experience won't carry over to the One experience.
- Xbox One won't support external storage at launch.

The reputation reset could be good or bad depending on your personal experience with Live! (personally I only ever played with friends). Sucks for people who built up a positive reputation score over the years. Essentially a "Get Out of Jail Free" card for the trolls and asshats.

The last point about the external storage sounds bad on the surface, but it will only affect a small percentage of gamers who buy every game on the shelf initially. They should have a decent window to get that shit sorted by the time more games come out than the non-replacable 500GB HDD can provide storage for.

In reality this is probably a rushed race to meet or beat Sony's projected PS4 release date in key markets. Either that or the team(s) responsible for external support on the One were re-allocated to all of the recent reversal decisions and simply didn't have time.
