Microsoft set to launch $99 4GB 360 + Kinect bundle next week in the US.

99 + 15 per month over 2 years is 459 dollars
299 + 100 for XBL gold 2 year membership is 399

I have to see how this plays out, but as it stands it doesn't look all that hot to me. Only if the subscription includes a Zune pass/Woodstock whatever pass and some extras is it worth it.
