Many of the same reliable sources that had corroborated Microsoft's plan to unveil their next Xbox console on April 24th are now indicating that plans have been pushed back a month, with a reveal event now expected to take place on May 21 (from The Verge):

Microsoft recently revealed that Xbox is part of the agenda for its Build conference in late June, where developers will likely learn about the company's next-generation plans. We understand that the next-generation Xbox software will be based on Windows 8, feeding into Microsoft's strategy of placing Windows at the heart of its products and services. With an Xbox event in late May, alongside E3 and Build in june, it's shaping up to be a busy summer for Xbox.

As The Verge notes, recent rumours have been fixated on whether or not the console will feature always on DRM technology, with a bit of drama stirred by comments from Microsoft Studios creative director Adam Orth putting the platform holder in the difficult position of not being able to confirm or deny functionality of a device they are yet to acknowledge even actually exists yet.
