It is now possible to recover gamertags and save data across
different Xbox 360s thanks to the arrival of the new cloud
storage for the console. The decision to go cloud based was
announced by Microsoft at this years E3, which also saw a
demonstration of the revamped Xbox 360 UI. Currently the service
only works with select Xbox Live Arcade games, which can be
downloaded and saves resumed from any console. This means an end
to transporting saves via hard-drives and memory units. It also
allows you to easily grab gamertag details when you head round
to a friends for a gaming sesh on their console. Microsoft
points, friends and achievements are now also stored up in the
cloud. Expect the cloud service to hit the Xbox 360 lineup in
its entirety when Microsoft releases the UI update.

This is really handy on the PS3 so should work well on Xbox as
well.
I have 2 PS3's, one in the lounge and one in the bedroom and
it's perfect for saving game saves to the cloud and then moving
from one to the other.
