Since Natal is essentially a software solution.  Is MS setting themselves up to license the software?

This lines up with MS's previous methods.  They are not really in the hardware business, they are in the software business.  If the tech takes off, and they can license the software easily, they could have another nice revenue stream.  Let hardware manufacturers(Dell, HP) handle the camera stuff, but let MS handle the software.  This could even plug right into the next Windows.

 

EDIT:  And by third parties, I am not referring to software third parties, I am referring to hardware manufacturing partners of MS.
