I still wonder if the camera we see is for the 40M+ Xbox 360s in the wild now and the one Natal 360 will have improved hardware and internalise that cameras processing which may be cheaper in the longer term.

Oh, so u mean the improved HW of X360 would be for the purpose of running the Natal processing in one device instead of X360 + external, that would be mandatory for us original X360-owners?

Would they use that extra HW power for something else too then?

Im not sure what they would do, but it would make sense at the very least to make the Xbox 360s which come with Natal bundled as cheap as possible and adding another core and more memory to the Xbox 360 Slims would be cheaper than using an extra processor on the camera itself. They probably wouldn't use it for anything aside from Natal specific applications because they don't want to split their userbase too much.
