X Box 360

[Jeff_B]

Since you basically cant find a Nintendo Wii in store anywhere I am prtty sure I am going to get an x box 360 for christmas and maybe a wii sometime after the holiday..
anyways my questions is

I looked at wikipedia and saw the difference between the core and the premium and really dont dont see it premium being worth extra money... I might buy the wireless controllers but tahts prob it.

The main question is I have a wireless network in my house with ZERO chance of running a wire from my router to where the XBOX would be... (Wireless G)

Is it possible to hook up Xbox live using this? How much of PITA will it be and will it run good?

Any suggestions on games?

AND wtf is the xbox live points system?
(I have never had an xbox or xbox live)
