lol, I'm not the one betting with you, but it seems like you are trying to get somebody to bet more on holiday promotions rather than an actual price drop due to poor performance of kinect.  


What is a retailer to do when they get suckered into ordering millions of a bad product?

bundle it with something else, but that doesn't mean that kinect is the bad product.  Imagine if you will that kinect is free with the purchase of an hdtv.  How can you prove that kinect is the crappy product?  Or how can you prove that it isn't  a manufacturer promotion?  I work at Best Buy and Microsoft, Sony, tons of companies will actually give us credit based on how much of the product we sold.  They actually organize the sell, Best Buy doesn't.  So how is a holiday promotion going to prove anything?
