Confirmed as in the original document was created by the Xbox team. The specs are still "up in the air."

CPU- (3) 3.5+Ghz IBM procs
GPU- 500MHz ATi w/10mb buffer. Ability to read directly from the on-die cache from each of the CPU cores.
Ram- 256mb unified
FSB- bandwidth peak is 10.8 GB/sec for reads and 10.8 GB/sec for writes
Audio- key hardware component for audio—XMA decompression. XMA is the native Xenon compressed audio format, based on the WMA Pro architecture. XMA provides sound quality higher than ADPCM at even better compression ratios, typically 6:1–12:1.
Video- From an audio/video standpoint, Xenon will support all the same formats as Xbox, including multiple high-definition formats up through 1080i, plus VGA output.
Network- 100BaseT
Storage- At the time of this writing, the decision to include a built-in hard disk in every Xenon console has not been made. If a hard disk is not included in every console, it will certainly be available as an integrated add-on component. Looks like we'll be using flash drives that cost extra for the most part :
