I thought I've read the exact opposite . that "the PlayStation Eye is more accurate and more precise." than Natal.

Not sure where you read that.  Hell, the Sony guy in the video I posted is the one that said you can only do so much with color for motion detection.

And again he was not referring to the Wand which happens to have a lighted ball on it's end.  With the wand  the camera  is tracking a light and in the other you are tracking reflexed light.

Tony Hawk made a comment that Natal was not accurate enough to do a stateboard game as well as you can't do a lot of the stunts with nothing.

Natal == PSEye + Infrared Sensor

How can you say that the PS Eye is more accurate and more precise than Natal when we have that equation?  The only thing the balls are there for is to accurately pinpoint the location of the hands.  Something Natal doesn't need a brightly glowing ball for.  It can detect the hands, the feet, the hips, the head, etc.  Depth is the problem that color only motion detection has.  And depth is the problem that the glowing balls are attempting to solve.  But then again, they are only providing depth information for the hands.

As for Tony Hawk, he mentioned a camera, could have been talking about the PSEye for all we know.  He also has an agenda with his own skateboarding controller, so not sure his comments are even legit.
