The xbox can indeed be remotely turned on and off. Last year i ordered a tiny kit from here - http://xir.us/xireasy.aspx

Works perfectly, though wiring it up scared me at the time, you have to splice in a few wires to the xbox power connector, plus different version xboxes have different wiring configurations (however the xir website gives you the various wiring diagrams). I just use a standard xbox remote control kit, ie -



You use the topmost button to turn on, and lowermost button to turn off. I only installed on the main xbox though, as i have 4 xboxes in the one room.
