cant wait to get them in.

on original xbox you have to power the kinect unit externally, on the new slim units it powers from the console

I reckon it looks like something which would be fun for about a couple of days, but the novelty would wear off pretty quickly. It will sell fast, though.

Pre orders are not meeting expectations.
I got to see and play with it at a Microsoft tech event - Pretty cool - Will wait and see if it gathers some major developer support before I decide to buy it.

Oh I'm also on the new Xbox dashboard ( Beta tester ) - Wait til you see it - It's totally different and much faster! Completely redesigned to co-incide with the release of Kinect.

Public release in about a month.
