There a lot of bullshit in his answers...

 The biggest one... Kinect One SDK costs ~$400 and have 2 Kinect One included and the SDK tools... no way it costs more than $150 each.

2 Kinect One for SDK version?where can i pre-order it then,wanna buy one

Oh i find it

Yeah the $400 Kinect2 SDK actual give buyer 2 Kinect2s,so i agree can't see it cost more than $150 each

Thats only if you preorder, you get a dev unit to play with.  This does not mean that you keep the dev unit.  The cost of the Kinect 2 for windows when it release will be 400 without a dev unit.  By giving developers dev units now before they get the release unit, those devs can give MS input on the device, functions and APIs to better refine the retail unit.  This is a win win for both develpers and MS.

They never said they won't let you keep the alpha version Kinect2 when they send you final version of Kinect2
