Source pins Kinect manufacturing costs to $150

[Joelcool7]

Sounds too expensive for me. Someone said this isn't the same camera they showed last year, that Microsoft removed parts making the camera less effective. If so they probubly did so to cut costs I bet the 150$ price tag is probubly close to what it costs Microsoft to make. I don't think Microsoft would mind loosing 50$ per unit if it sells at least one first party title per unit.

Microsoft might sell this thing at a loss!
