Microsoft has confirmed the November 1 release of their XBox Live Fall update. This update should bring the kick ass, adding cool new features such as ESPN programming, the ability to search on NetFlix, Zune Music, an updated UI and Avatar updates.

The update is also part of the big Kinect roll out this week. Once updated, your XBox 360 dashboard will officially be ready to support the Kinect sensor. It should be noted that this update is mandatory and Microsoft expects it will take between five and ten minutes to install.
