And its more like 9 million in terms of revenue....not profit. I dont know if you follow Sony financials, but they are dripping red ink :)

?????? "And its more like 9 million in terms of revenue" - are you that dense?

We all can read the financial reports and see that Sony, as a company, is in the red. What does this have to do with the fact that Move, as a device, is profitable on the manufacturing level, but probably not (yet) on the production level?

And here is a little surprise for you: the Kinect device is exactly on the same path as the Move device: profitable on the manufacturing level, not (yet) profitable on the production level.

Im afraid Move isn't profitable on any level.....

MS on the other hand said that Kinect is sold at a profit, and MS actually posts profits in their quarterly earnings :)

You cant be serious with this...

Move is likely to be more profitable than kinect anyway, are you forgetting that various companies rejected this technology because it was too expensive? Not to mention Microsoft's 500 million dollar push last holidays.

Both are definitely profitable at the margin.

Move may be profitable, but I wouldnt call it successful, at least not like Kinect.

And you cant be serious (regarding the bold). There have been virtually no 3rd party support on the Move, no dedicated titles built around it. The only title worth mentioning is Sorcery, but honestly id take Fable the Journey over that.

Kinect on the other hand not only has a few million selling 1st and 3rd party games but lots more 3rd party support in general (again I mean not kinect compatible but kinect specific games). 

Kinect will be sold for Windows next year and MS plans to sell Kinect to other businesses. Theres even rumors of a Kinect 2.0 in the next xbox. That sounds way more successful then Sony with a rejected Wii concept :)
