That has been confirmed?? I know a week ago, the rumor was all over the gaming sites, but it was all speculation.
All the rumors I've read put the release date somewhere in the March/April window presumably to fuck with the PS3 launch in Europe--so, I'd at least wait and see before committing serious spending money in case the new model stuff is true.
Either way,Microsoft is going to eventually switch to the 65nm--assuming I remember that right--processor and that should solve some of the heat and noise issues the first go round of 360s has if that's what you're worried about, but there doesn't seem to be a date set for the switch, as far as I know.
As for the different SKUs, I bought the premium package. The addition of the hard drive was worth it to me because I download a shitload of demos and game videos. In the end, if I had bought a core package plus the hard drive plus the headset plus the component cables--all included in the premium package--it would have ended up costing me a lot more.
