I agree, however there have been various OTHER reports that Xbox2 / 360 / 
Xenon will have 512 MB RAM

one example of that:
___________________________________
" Question: Why is there only 256 MB of RAM?
  Answer: The mistake many readers are making is to equate the amount of RAM 
to that of a PC. A console does not need as much RAM as a PC because it's a 
specialized device that serves a specific function and it does not need to 
run a full operating system.

  That said, a few developers pulled me aside to tell me that they think 
Microsoft is upping the RAM to 512 MB. "

from everything Ive read, especially on the message boards,  every 
indication is that it's getting 512 MB.
so it's not just one or two no-nothing internet sites spreading a rumor. 
but we'll find out in a few short weeks
either way.
