XBox only for games

Someone correct me if I am wrong, but while investigating what I would need to do in order to develop software for the XBox platform I came across rules or policies that basically state that Microsoft does not support the development of non-game software for the XBox platform.

However, I think many interesting non-game applications could be developed for XBox as well as other game systems. These applications could take advantage of all positive aspects of game systems such as graphics, controllers, display on tv instead of monitor, etc.

Imagine navigating through some highly visual document library or presentation using a game controller and a plasma tv.

Whatever....
