Excellent, I think try before you buy is extremely important for the Kinect package if nothing else it should help you gauge the space requirements.

I tried Kinect at my friends brothers house. Personally I don't like it so far. I really dislike the repeated movements that you have to do for the software. It has potential but it definitely isn't what I want right now.

I will have to agree with you on the some of the repeated movements. It seems especially on Kinect Sports that I need to perform 3 tasks when 1 should of been proficient. I would also like to see greater use of the voice especially in the menu systems which is something that the Sonic game did well.

It is actually interesting how different games have employed different mechanisms for you to interact. Dance Central uses a sweeping gesture which is my favourite but is prone to accidental selection. That is followed by fitness evolved who use a shortened waiting ring with a move to second button and my least favourite and the most common is the long wait for the ring to fill.

Yeah that and the fact the hand movement is a bit jittery in menus is the only bad thing about KS, everything else is amazing IMO.
