My only concerns are it taking up a usb port and having an annoying light. One of those is already gone with kinect v2 but I expect I'll need electrical tape for the second.

Privacy concerns? Ha I'm not worried anymore than with the other cameras always watching me.

JoeTheBro!  Nice to know I'm not the only one that cover those nasty little LED's with black elecritacl tape.  Wait till I tell my friend(s) they make fun of it, but my family understands. 

I had a long, long talk with the developer of the Xbox One, and he said at the most it will look like it's 'warm.' I gather like an eletric stove top spiral burner.  He said no sparkely red light like the current one.  It sounds like the infared light souce gives off that 'warm' looking.  I have noticed a fan in the back of the Kinect 2.0, perhapse that's why.

I still haven't seen it turned on in person yet.  Have you? Or know anyone that has?

3 blue lights are just IR but that one on the right looks bright. Camera itself looks bright though so hopefully it is a reflection.
