Does the Live Starter Kit have a memory card included? I have seen several pics that include an orange plastic thing that looks like a memory card???

Sure does, next time just search the forum.

Holds just enough to carry your online info.

You only get the memory card if you're a beta tester.

I see now. I couldn't actually find any descriptions that stated you get a memory card, but from the pics it showed one. Also, I couldn't figure out why they wouldn't list it if it were included.

Where did you hear that? Because I don't want to buy $50+ for the kit, $50+ for a game, then $30+ for a freaking mem. card i will never use!

You don't get the commemorative orange memory card in your Xbox Live Starter Pack, unless you purchase the beta testers' edition, and that too is $49.95+ tax/s&h and only available to official XBL beta testers.

So if I never become a Beta tester, I'm gonna have to waste more money on a f*cking memory card?! I really hope it's an option to save on the mem. card or not. Because I really don't want to buy one.

Yes, it's an option. All your Live Subscription data will be saved to the Hard Drive. Memory cards will now be good for only 2 things:

1) Bring a save to a friends house for use on their Xbox

2) Bring your personal Xbox Live account to a friends house for use on their Xbox

That's it

Memory cards are cheap on eBay; they go for around $15.00. Here is one at $10 with 4 days left... http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1377327752

I got a mem card and all but what happens if you saved your info to the hard drive and something happens to it?? Are you screwed over?
