I thought the update came out August 25th?

They're just getting ready for it. Xbox.com said they will be avalable on the 25th, along with XSN, so unless they change it, they're probably just gettin gready.

look at this thread

This is just preliminary updates that the service needs in order to migrate over to the new dashboard succesfully. A lot of it has to do with the actual servers themselves to insure the transition goes smoothly on the 25th all the big things are done early to make sure no bugs are found or new problems arise, if they do it gives them some time to weed through them and get it ready to go for the 25th.

No, I believe the dashboard will come out on auguest 15 and "XBOX LIVE WEB" will come on out August 25th. This is all according to the latest article at txb.

Im not sure if thats true because why would they shut down xbl on the 14 of august instead of like the 8 th of september and i read that thing that said mid september like 2 weeks ago

Scratch what i just said look at this
Xbox Live will be down for planned maintenance at 12:01 a.m. Pacific Daylight Time on August 14 for an estimated eight hours. This is part one of a four-part rollout of new Xbox Live features. Here's exactly what's coming with each part of the upgrade:

August 14
At 12:01 a.m. PDT, we will perform routine server maintenance to keep the service running as smoothly as possible. Despite a lot of speculation in online forums and in the press, the upgrade will begin and end on August 14.

August 25
You'll see a fresh new Web site at www.xbox.com/live. This will include an option for Xbox Live subscribers to use their Gamertags to log on to a special area of the site called My Live. Here subscribers will be able to see their Friends List and the games their friends are playing on Xbox Live.

A few days later, you'll see the birth of XSN Sports, a Web site powered by the same technology as the new Xbox Live Web site. XSN Sports will enable Xbox Live subscribers to create leagues and tournaments for NFL Fever 2004 and other XSN Sports titles coming later this year.

Mid-September
We'll release an update of the Xbox Dashboard. The new Xbox Live Dashboard, called Xbox Live Now, will give subscribers the ability to see their Friends List, see what their friends are doing, and send game invites. It will also display their stats and provide a common place to voice chat with friends before and after Xbox Live games.

A lot of great things are coming to gamers in the next few weeks on Xbox Live. Check it out! And get ready for all the hot games coming this holiday!
